Shovelhead value?


I posted this question a while back and I hate to bring it up again but here is my situation.
My brother died suddenly. He loved this bike he would tell me it looked just like the one Dennis Hopper ride in easy rider. We live in different states and he was a jet mechanic and knew mechanical things. I was living in a apt until we could get a house built and had to put most of my things in storage and then when my brother dropped dead I have kept all his things.
I had to store the bike in our barn and now we are getting settled in and I would like to know if I can some how post some pictures? The only part of this bike that is a sportster is the frame.
The engine is a aluminum head shovelhead with a wide glide frame. It has fatboy tanks and it only has a kick start. I need to insure it but my insurance will not due to its age. I will get to a Harley shop. But could I sent any picutures? I will not sell it. Just find its value.It has a lot of old Harley Chrome. sandy in TN

OK a little confusing but -if its clean runs good prob from $75 to $9K thought you had pics. I buy and sell 8 to 15 bikes a month i have shovels from $7K to $15K depends on what style they are all mine are rebuilt or a fresh built bike

Try Progressive Insurance, I have my two 1980 models which are both ground up rebuilds with juiced motors 88 and 96 CID one at 10,500 and the big motor at15,000, costs me under a thousand for full coverage on both. There are companies that specialize in custom bikes, but you need to get appraisals from certain certified shops to determine value and you pay a premium for it. You can find them in cycle mags devoted to Harleys

OK Sandy
A few diffrences in your description but -Easy Riders Billy's Bike is a Pan ridgid-a shovelhead wont go in a sporty frame ( Unless you mean a shovelhead sporty
But yeah send some pics im in texas now but i am from Clevland Tn send front -rear-and both sides and list if you can what has been done to it and when Ill see what I can tell you
