Overview
This 1938 Harley Davidson EL Knucklehead was featured in the 2019 Mecum Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction. This exquisite motorcycle was part of the
MC Collection of Stockholm.
This 1938 EL Knucklehead was restored for the museum by Fredrik Lange of Gothenburg Sweden under the supervision of Ove Johansson of the MC Collection.
This historic motorcycle was part of the Robert Castoro Collection and is being liquidated by his estate. This EL Knucklehead is in the same quality appearance as it was presented in the MC Collection and at The Mecum auction. The motorcycle has not been started or ridden. It remains in dry storage for preservation.

Mileage
Unknown. We do not believe that the motorcycle has been operated since it resided in the MC Collection. 4 miles showing on the odometer.
Paint
Excellent paint and paint prep with the correct scheme for 1938.
Sheet Metal
Sheet metal is in great shape with no dings or dents. Appears to be original sheet-metal. The bike has been reviewed by a Qualified AMCA Judge who has found no errors and noted many one year only correct items.
Chrome
Excellent condition. Properly placed and properly applied
Mechanical
This powerplant has not been ridden or started while in the care of the current owner. It is as delivered from the MC Collection. We do have a picture of the bike being presented to a buyer on a street scene which would indicate that it was a runner at the time. Rare and correct 1938 transmission is in the motorcycle which was noted during a technical inspection by knowledgeable knucklehead collectors at the auction. They could not find any non-correct parts on the bike. They did find many one year 1938 only items in place.
