Hamcan Mods
Bought an old hamcan for this project on eBay for .99 the other day - straight, but the chrome was shot. I used some air tools where I work to cut an opening in the front, and then I sandblasted the rust and the remainder of the chrome off of it. Here are a few pics...
Inside of my old SE air cleaner, adapted to the Ironhead
Screen curved correctly & JB Welded in, with donor office supply basket behind
Cover in sandblast finish (cool looking, but it would rust like mad)
Primed and painted with "cast aluminum" engine paint
The finished product

The parts falling off this motorcycle are of the finest American, occasionally, manufacture.

Thanks. Here's a more recent pic with a different trim piece (which I think looks better).
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

better get your address ready, HD will be needing to know where they refuse to send a royalty check when they steal your idea
which is a very good idea, I like it
