For Sale: Indian Chief 1935 - $58,800 USD
This 1935 Indian Chief has just undergone a 2 1/2 year complete frame off restoration. I have always believed that the 1935- 39 Indian Chiefs are some of the best looking motorcycles ever made. The 1935 year models were the first year of the streamlined fenders with the deep valance. This Chief features the optional "V tank panels" with a red and black two color paint design. This motorcycle runs and rides as good as it looks too. It has a 6 volt electrical system.
The paint job on this bike is absolutely gorgeous. It features a two tone red & black paint scheme with both thin & thick gold pin striping. The paint has 4 coats of clear and was hand rubbed out. This 1935 Chief runs as good as it looks. No expense has been spared during this restoration. It runs and rides as good as it looks.
