This car is a tribute to the racing driver Caroll Shelby, who sensationally won the legendary Le Mans race in 1959 with his Aston Martin.
To this end, the car was configured in a purist but high-quality manner and moderately restyled. The paintwork corresponds to the color "Aston Martin Racing Green" (Porsche PTS Y68). The doors are adorned with the signature of Caroll Shelby and the seat center panels were designed to match the colors of the Scottish Forbes clan.

Harley-Davidson PAN Head Custom
The legendary Pan Head, probably one of the most beautiful V-twin engines built by Harley Davidson. Unfortunately, the original version is somewhat vulnerable in terms of technology.
So what to do? Take a 1961 Pan with the beautifully "comfortable" articulated frame and set about converting it. As always, the focus was on a symbiosis of design and technology.
The choice of dedication this time fell on the "Black Aces 41". This US naval aviation squadron was at the forefront of new, risky missions during the Second World War. For example, in the surprise strike against Hitler's German supply lines in Norway. Their characteristic ace of spades logo and their success despite limited resources made them a legendary squadron in US Navy aviation.
This machine is dedicated to the GI's and the bikes that many of them rode in the newly founded motorcycle clubs of the time.
Base & conversion
The original bobbers of the post-war years were based on the civilian machines that rolled off the production line at the Milwaukee plant from 1946 onwards. The conversion is based on a 1961 Harley-Davidson Duo Glide - equipped with a classic Panhead engine, kickstart, jockey shifter and original frame. The machine has been completely overhauled and transformed into a classic bobber with Springer fork, solo seat, footboards and vintage paintwork
The paintwork in weathered matt blue, the individually designed tank emblem "Black Aces 41" and the airbrush on the side cover with "USS Independence - NAVY" ensure the authentic look. The conversion deliberately dispenses with superfluous technology such as indicators or electric starters in order to get as close as possible to the original feeling of the 1950s.
The combination of Springer fork, solo seat with suspension and classic tires ensures a genuine old-school riding experience. The typical sound of the open S&S carburetor in combination with the black exhaust systems rounds off the experience. A vehicle for enthusiasts with a love of detail and a sense of history.
