Harley-Davidson Servi-Car 1937 side valve V-twin Engine # 37W216

In 1932 Harley-Davidson brought out the Servi-car, and it was produced till 1973. A smart design point was that the rear axle had a track of 42“ (1100 mm) which was similar to that of most cars of the time. On unmade roads and snow tracks the Servi-Car could use automobile-made tracks. In addition to its intended use for car delivery and retrieval, the Servi-Car was also popular as a utility vehicle for small businesses and mobile vendors. They proved to be particularly popular with the police departments, some of which still used Servi-Cars into the 1990s. The Servi-Car used variations of H-D’s 45“ (742 cc) side valve engine. From 1932 to 36 the engine of the “R” was used; that was changed in 1937 for the engine used in the” W” model, which differed mainly in having a recirculating oil system instead of the constant-loss system of the “R”.
This 1937 Servi-Car is an old restoration and ready to be put to its intended use again. It is offered with complete Dutch registration paperwork
