Would you believe that this Knucklehead was picked up for a measly 500 smackeroos in 1972? And that it only cost $600 more to make it look the way it does here? Man times were good back then. Yes we're aware that the value of the dollar is much different today then it was almost 40 years ago, but it sounds like a good deal to us! Once we stumbled upon Jay Harrison's '47 Knuckle archives at the Street Chopper headquarters we knew it was necessary to bring it back from the dead for you to check out once again. It only took Jay four months to rework the stock Knuck into this beauty. Not bad for a first-time builder from back in the day.
