    It had been a shop van for an Indian Motorcycle dealership from 1971 until the early 2000s.

    It was. A guy in our club just picked it up... along with 13 crates of NOS parts. He hasn't said what he paid, but he did fly to get it and drove it 600 miles back.

    American Pickers would have grabbed that one just for the logo on the doors! Bet those Indian taillights are worth as much as the van LOL!

    The building in the back ground is the scene of the TV show Northern Exposure. Sure wish that Netflix would put that one back on.

    Northern Exposure was a great show! It was filmed here in Roslyn Washington I stopped there on my drive home from Boise when I bought the Van. The town is unchanged Dr Fleishman's office and Hollings bar are still there. It's super cool. Thanks for digging on the van I will be making it even better.

    SUPER NICE! Great interior. I'm thinking I'd be leaving the Indian stickers on her. ( but I'm a vintage bike guy too!).

    Amazing score, congrats man!

    ... Say, as reference, do you have a kingpin set? Curious what the original kits included.
