    I spotted a few Indian teens gas tanks at the Motorcyclepedia warehouse swap meet this past weekend.
    Not sure exactly what years they were, lefts or rights, I can't remember?
    I do remember a few were original paint unrestored.
    I believe the warehouse sale is open again for Vtwin dealers TODAY 1-22-18.
    The tanks were in the "aquarium" if you or someone you know goes there.
    A while back I found an o/p oil tank and an original sidecar fender both from that same era
    at that location. 46EL

      Hi 46EL, thanks for the heads up, any chance you have a contact or know someone there? I just called Teds Cycle and asked them about the tanks, a gentleman took my number and said someone might get back...... unfortunately, they did not seem to eager to provide any help or info.
      Thanks,

        Todd,
        I was at that swap meet over the weekend. I am also in the market but for an 18 PowerPlus tanks/parts. There were some tanks at the swap meet in the aquarium but not for a PowerPlus. I thought I scored at first but closer look determined not for that bike.

          Dan, thanks for the reply, I don't feel so bad now as they never did return my call, will just keep looking. I am also looking for a set of bars, I have a set of 1918 bars to trade.

            Todd,
            New to forum, new to this Manf and era so I literally have nothing to trade. Love the antique bike world but was always just HD. Picked up my 18 PP in a multi-bike purchase and currently am spending an inordinate amount of time researching. I defiantly am hooked on the look and story of the PP.

            Yours looks awesome!!
            Dan

              Thanks Dan, I’m new here as well. I just posted additional pictures of the bike going from Red to Olive Drab, have you posted pics of your 18?

                Todd,
                Here a few pics if I uploaded correctly.
                Still not sure my plans for this bike yet.

                    Hey Todd,

                    Any chance you could send a few pics of the 18 handlebars?

                    Thanks
                    Dan
