American Pickers star Mike Wolfe is embarking on yet another restoration project, and this time he’s reaching out to fans for help.

On Thursday, Jan. 16, Wolfe took to Instagram with a photo of vintage motorcycle.

“Overhead valve Indian Prince Factory Racer @columbiamotoralley,” Wolfe wrote in his caption.

“Would love to discover more of its history. The tank has the initials AC on it and the bike is an untouched time capsule.

Any information would be invaluable to have to tell its story.”

Wolfe’s followers were definitely impressed with his retro score.

“Amazing!!” raved one fan.

“You find all the coolest stuff❤️🙌❤️🙌❤️,” a second chimed in.

“Really cool bike! I’ll bet that little single is loud AF,” someone else pointed out, with another Instagram user agreeing, “That ‘muffler’ is not going to do much muffling.”

One commenter actually seemed to know something about the bike’s history.

“Mike, I believe that one was owned by Mort Wood,” the person wrote.

“He owned 2 of them one had a JAP motor in it. As I recall it was a 27 or 28 as indicated by the vin number. ALR is 26, BLR is 27 and CLR is 28. I own a 26 racer.

I think I have a pic from 2001 when Indian was the featured motorcycle to celebrate Indian’s 100th.

In that pic there was around 5 Indian Prince factory racers.”

It seems that Wolfe is focused on vehicles at the moment, as he announced a collaboration with Chip Foose of the car-customization series Overhaulin’ in an Instagram post on Sunday, Jan. 12.

“Epic day filming with the legend @chipfooseofficial,” Wolfe wrote.

“Can’t wait for you all to see this episode.

Chip and I know each other thru bicycles not cars.

He’s a [sic] antique bicycle hunter and gather just like me.”
