    A long long time ago in a galaxy far far away,,,, Anyway there was a chicken coop full of 61" Panhead cylinders at the Former Albuquerque Harley Dealers home. His name was Charlie. The guy who worked for him kind of inherited everything Charlie owned. He moved somewhere "In the mountains" above Albuquerque. Someone must know who and where Paul is today? He had another chicken coop full of 61" Knuck cylinders too.

      Paul never inherited any of Charlie's stuff. Las I heard of Paul he was still working at Larry's Custom Cycle in ABQ and trying to keep the monkey off his back...
      Charlie's stuff was all sold, and then sold again. By the time it was first sold the majority of it was already gone, picked over by many hands and a fair amount of it was stolen. After it was sold lots of it went to swap meets. there is still a bit floating around but nothing to get excited about. When it sold it was nowhere near what you think you remember. Charlie had already died and his brother Walt was not far behind. The old clubhouse still stands next door...

          The first time I went to Charlie's 2 acre yard back in the '70's if was packed full of stuff. Pallets of crates on NOS WLA parts. I used to buy NOS headlamps and footboards by the case. Piles of frames. It was heaven. I always stopped in there when traveling cross country. The last time I was there, in the '90's, Charlie was in the home and Paul was minding the store. The yard was, for the most part, empty. I did buy a couple bent Electra-glide frames. But the 61" cylinders were still in the chicken coops along the back fence. The next time I stopped a year or two later everything was gone.
