I don't know much about old bikes, but that almost looks like and Indian. They were popular in that time period I think

It may not be because the tank logos are different

I looked up vintage motorcycles and I've been thumbing through a few images. I saw a few Harleys that looked similar. They too were popular back in the day. I've got eight more hours to kill so if I see anything that might be a possibility I'll post the image
