Harley and Hot Rods! My Pop was a hot-rodder and race car (dirt) driver. He always had cool cars and motorcycles. And the chicks my age and their Moms (Pops age) were always walking by his garage. I got my first Harley , a '64 XLCH Sportster from a family friend at 16 for $500. It was in boxes and the frame & sheetmetal was in red lead primer. It became a father/son project and I got my learners permit at the same time I got my car permit. I could drive my beat up old Chevy van to school at 17 , but the school wouldn't let me park the bike on school grounds. So I kept it at a girls house that lived behind the school. All the free-spirited , long haired hippie chicks loved it , er , us.
