Great job Steve the color is great. I like the gas tank mod looks factory.

Do you have any old pics of it from when you were a kid ?

[mrtwister]

only picture I have ..

funny only reason there was anything left of the lil indian after 50 years my brother had a purple two speed 5 hp lil indian I had a smaller chassis green 3 hp my dad said if I could start his I could ride it.. I was 6 my brother 8 .. I could get it goin most of the time and he couldn't so my poor little green one didn't get used as much .. lol
