EXTREMELY RARE! NO$ 1936 Harley Fender shows us what bikes were like when they were new$

We recently had the opportunity to get close to a new old stock front fender that was made in 1938 or 1939 to service dealerships needs in case some one wrecked their rl. Ever since I was a kid ive heard other enthusiasts have debates over how shiny or how smooth the paint work was on these bikes when they were new. Looking at old factory photos can be deceiving because the bikes were color sanded to deter hot/ bright spots while being photographed. This Fender is new and unused condition and after a little bit of elbow grease we were able to see what the condition, shine and texture of the paint were when these bikes were made. We go over striping details for front and rear fenders on 1935 and 1936 Harleys. Hope this helps some of you with your personal projects
