Way back in 2010, as "American Pickers" was two seasons deep and still finding its footing, hosting duo-turned-rivals Mike Wolfe and Frank Fritz hit the road as they had numerous times before in an episode titled "Easy Riders." This time around, their search brought them to Missouri, where a longtime collector had a remarkable find waiting for them: a 1937 Harley Davidson Knucklehead. For a bike like that, Fritz and Wolfe were more than willing to make a deal one way or another. When the dust settled and the negotiation process was over, the two pro pickers secured the motorcycle for $20,000.
Even though it had a handful of replacement parts on it, the '37 Harley Davidson Knucklehead was still an excellent piece that any motorcycle collector would surely love to add to their showroom. Thankfully for those interested, there are still a few roaming around out there, but if you're buying from a collector, don't expect to have an easy time getting it from them. Two years after they got the '37, Wolfe and Fritz nearly got their hands on a '47 Knucklehead, which is quite an exciting find. Although, the owner still clearly had some strong attachment to it, turning down their $25,000 offer (via Huffington Post).
All these decades later, there's still plenty of love in the world for Harley Davidson Knuckleheads. It's just too bad not everyone who wants one has "American Pickers" levels of disposable income to purchase one with.
