Wouldn't that picture of your Dad have to at least be from 48' since the Hydra-Glide front end didn't get introduced until the 1949 model panhead?
It would have to be later than that! The bags are '50, '49 had the western buckles. '49 also had painted fork lowers although someone could have stripped them. The front bumper is like the one H-D introduced in '55, looks like it may have the '52 Stainless frame/battery cover too. It is still a very cool pic, just not as old as remembered!

Don't feel at all bad about the date. It's cool that your dad was into bikes and that you have that pic to remember it by. To me it looks like it might be a wishbone framed Pan and that you might be off by about 10 years, but so what. Still a cool pic and memory.

Got more? I see the thumbnail looks cool too.
