That’s a beautiful piece of art and awesome creation. The vintages become more valuable with the touches given.

Sorry champ, but nearly all of Von Dutch’s custom work was done in ‘glass. Have a good ol’ google for Von Dutch show rods and you’ll find a wealth of info on the subject…..
And the style of this bike follows the styling cues used in a lot of his other customs of the time.

Looks a bit like a half-stripped Vincent Black Prince.
Especially the front fender.
YMMV

Yes, but you need to go back another 10 years before you were into it. Look at what was available in 1960-61. Personally, it wasn’t until 1962 that Schwinn even had a Stingray. Which I got for Christmas that year. Go back to that time and if I saw a motorcycle on the street, and there were lots in Daytona where we lived at the time, I would have no idea what brand or model it was. If I saw this Guzzi, I’d think it was from outter space or from some weird movie.

I agree, the thing looks like its from the Bizarro world, just sayin’ when it was built, it was current and since the late 40′s everything has been changing at an exponential rate.

Speaking of the 70′s, look at Fashions (Bell bottoms, sideburns) and music (Disco) and eveything else. Lot of weird stuff then too.

My favorite part of this bike is the front fender.
