Nanner Starnes from Newport, Tennessee, owner of the 1965 Electra Glide (Panhead) commissioned Marshall Greene to restore a “crusty, rusty bike found in a barn in east Tennessee. The old stock Pan was originally from New Jersey. What makes this bike so collectible is that it was the last Harley fitted with the Panhead motor and the first with an electric start. The owner had it chromed in New Jersey in 1987. When he quit riding in 1996, he put it in an old shed in Tennessee. Nanner Starnes bought the bike in 2016 and brought it to Marshall for a complete restoration. The bike was all there, so Marshall completely disassembled the bike and restored every piece. The only outside help was paint and chrome! Jared Phillips did an excellent job on the paint. The blue is Hi Fi Blue and the white is Birch. The paint creates a beautiful old school look. Space Coast Plating did the chrome. This was the third bike that Marshall restored for Nanner. Marshall previously worked as an airplane mechanic and has been working on old bikes on his property in Deland for years. His work on the old scoots is meticulous and it shows in the results!
