I saw this at the Lone Star Roundup last weekend.



The valve covers have "Chief Ambassador" engraved on them.

That is much nicer than a lot of the "customs" I've seen.

The Chief Ambassador is a nice touch.

Looks nice, and looks practical to ride with the footpeg setup, although the bars would be hard to hang on to in the wind.

He managed to get a Loop front wheel onto that Indian girder.   Lots of fabrication I'm sure but at least he's got a brake now instead of the fairy-pressing-a-dandelion-head-on-the-hub thing that came on the original Indians ...

Looks nearly identical to the one Bryan Fuller built:

That could explain why it says "Fuller" on the fender of the bike in the original pic! :)

Just glanced at the photo in the original post, didn't notice the "Fuller" at the time. Looks like he's modified it some since the first photos.
