9/16 scale 1913 Indian board track racer

following the tragic death of her son while riding his 1915 Indian Twin, his mother buried his wrecked motorcycle in the garden

in the above photo you can see the left handlebar forced through the gas tank by the fatal collision

A motorcycle enthusiast heard the story, and exhumed the Indian from the garden in Durban, South Africa.

Upon finding it, clearly the damp earth ruined the machine, and so the motorcycle was sprayed with a red-oxide rust inhibitor and put on display for all to see.
