Although REPLICANT METALS is primarily a vintage motorcycle parts fabricating shop, we are equally skilled in the restoration trades.  Ask how our expertise, inventory and equipment could benefit your next restoration.

While dabbling in restorations of my own antique machines I constantly critiqued the quality of original parts as compared to the questionable value of reproduction parts. During this pursuit of excellence I encountered some exceptional quality, suffered many disappointments and was eventually persuaded to produce the balance.  Thanks to the encouragement of several associates Replicant Metals now offers a relatively unsurpassed selection of sheet metal for Harley Davidson twins from the 1915 J through the 1936 VL.

We also are uniquely equipped to perform several feats of magic. We are closely associated with the premier motor builders of the pocket valve and flathead world, and have close alliance to the most competent welders and frame specialists on the East Coast.  We offer restoration paint finishes and period patina surfaces and accept limited volumes of preservation work that is dependent your expectations of excellence. We are not a walk-in repair shop and do not waste our time answering backyard questions with shade tree advice.
