I wonder if she was able to start that by herself, she doesn't look like she weighs more than 110 pounds

1953 Packard

 

That's a WL 45, compression is 4.5-4.75. My wife is 110#, but I never had her start mine. That's a pretty slick little bobber, I think the plate says '53, it's got a Hydra Glide front end with buckhorn bars from a big bike, bobbed military flat top fenders, footpegs instead of boards and it doesn't look like the standard rocker clutch, might be a suicide.

 

1956 Brigham UT. Main Street.
