A wartime Indian at 1:7 — large scale, olive paint, and the stripped military specification of a machine built for dispatch work rather than the open road.

Handcrafted in iron with rolling metal wheels and hand-painted finish, with exposed V-twin, sprung saddle, panniers and blackout lighting detail.

The machine

Indian built the 741 for Allied armies — a 500cc side-valve V-twin, deliberately modest in power because reliability and low-speed tractability mattered more than speed for a dispatch rider on ruined roads.

Around 35,000 went to Commonwealth forces. Indian won the volume contracts abroad while Harley-Davidson took the American ones, and the decision to chase military production while neglecting the civilian market is often blamed for Indian's collapse in 1953 — an eight-year decline that ended America's oldest motorcycle company.
