This beautiful 1939 Indian Chief is now being offered for sale. I have always believed that the 1935- 39 Indian Chiefs are some of the best looking motorcycles ever made. The 1939 year model is the last year of the streamlined fenders with the deep valance. It has a 6 volt electrical system. This motorcycle was completely stripped down to the bare frame. All parts were bead blasted, cleaned and refinished. The motorcycle has been partially restored.The motor was completely disassembled, bead blasted, ball burnished and reassembled. The crankshaft and motor will need to be rebuilt. You will need to do some work on this motorcycle before it can be ridden. The wheels were disassembled, bead blasted, powder coated and reassembled with new stainless steel spokes, Coker Diamond Tread tires. They were professionally rebuilt & trued. This bike has over $12,000 in parts and outside services invested in it.I have a California title for this bike and a California license plate. It is not currently registered, it was last registered in 2013.
