Question Need Help Finishing My Sons Build

Hi Guys.
My son passed away at age 42 with a heart attack and now I am determined to finish his bike that was started in 2001. yep been a while and money got tighter and tighter. Not sure at 66 if I will want to ride it? Have not been on one except in the yard and that was because he bought me a 75 Sportster during Katrina and now it is all apart waiting to be rebuilt and he is not around anymore. But his bike is first in line and is together but needs to be finished.

I need advice on a seat for it and either a solo or one for your humper to ride with you

I also need advice on a dash. I have his old one complete that I can either powder coat or maybe get the chrome shop to re-chrome as long as they don't take for DAG ever as normal

I will need more advice and or pictures on where to install rear lights and no telling what else. I do have a friend that will help me get it all ready as for as finish wiring along with his advice and he has build a few over the years but I just want other ideas but money is short so looking for any deals if you might have parts that you are not going to use.

Frame Santee Fat Bob Swing Arm 95-006 4 speed
Rear Fender 7 5/8 Sheriff for 4 speed
Tanks Stretch Fat Bob
The motor is a pan shovel with new Delkron cases
And yep I was lucky enough to find all the paper work that he thought had been lost and all have been signed and notarized buy the shops that sold the most important parts and then I also have all the receipts for the other $$$$$$$$$ he had spent over the years before it and after the start over in 2001

Here are some pictures so you will know what I need to go after right now.

Angry

Hey guys if there is a forum worth a crap because this one for sure is lacking then let me know by email. I also have one other forum that has had some advice and it also is not worth joining. At 66 I will do it on my own like I have from the age of 14 when all we had then was ask local guys and get magazines and then write a letter and hell it only to 4 days or less in the 50's to get answers back from the best custom guys in the world back then.

Catch you in the next life time I guess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And you call your form club choppers ?????????????

Just delete me one time and done because that is what I am going to do with links to you also

I guess your gone for good, but if you look.
It's possible no one responded because it's hard to figure out what your looking for.
Seats - there are lots of them available (Mustang, Corbin, etc.)
The bike looks complete from the pictures.
Everyone has different taste.
Look through the gallery here - tons of pictures.

Duke, first off,.....sorry for the loss of your son. May he RIP.

Being new to internet forums, you have to understand that often, if no one notices your first post, it gets lost on back pages as other thread are started, and no one see it anymore. That's when you come back and "bump" your thread by posting something,...anything,.......even the word "bump", to bring back to the front pages again.

Like Roger "Rastoy" said,........let us know a little more about what you're actually looking for. Remember, the chopper sites aren't as active as they used to be,.......back 4 or 5 years, you would have gotton dozens of replies because this place was so busy.
