Hi I'm new to the forum and thought I'd introduce myself.

I go by Randy and live in South Central Missouri near Fort Leonard Wood. I retired from the Army about 14 years ago and have been riding since 1967 when I bought my first bike (age 10) a Bridgestone 50. I've owned many bikes since and have owned a 1945 HD WL and a 1947 Servi car. I currently ride a 2007 Ultra Classic. I miss my old bikes and should never have gotten rid of them, but moving ever few years in the service and raising a family, it was hard to keep them.

I have recently purchased a 1957 Servi car in rough shape, the story I was given it once was used as a drag bike back in the 60's at National Speedway on Long Island, NY. There have been many modifications made to it, some good some bad (in my opinion) so I have a lot of work to do. I have some experience working on old bikes but it's been many years and I'm going to have many questions.

Thanks for having a place like this, I hope I can learn and possibly help others.

Welcome Randy! You just found the best damn little spot on the internet for old bikers with old bikes! You'll get plenty of help here, all ya gotta do is ask. But I need to warn you up front--- we like photos--- lots of photos!

Thanks I added my first post in the 36-64 forum with links to pics Whenever the mods get around to approving the thread the pics will be there for all to criticize on "how could someone do that to a nice old bike" And no I didn't do it, but am planning on fixing it!

Hi and welcome to the classic Harley forum family and glad to see you here.

Lots of Servicar owners and riders here and most should prove to be supportive and full of valuable info.
