When someone visits Indian Motor Works for the first time, “wow” is often their first response. Everything from the easy music, the original signs, memorabilia and character of the building takes you on a nostalgia trip through time. The IMW shop was designed and built for efficiency. Complete with full access to hand and machine tools, a full and balanced inventory of Indian parts and a relaxed aesthetic appeal not often found in machine shops. Outfitted extensively with hand tools, jigs, dies, and fixtures, coupled with full welding and fabrication equipment all nestled in a hospital like setting. 

One can sense the workflow, the different processes feeding one into the next, moving from one work station to another as parts are refined, repaired and restored… The aroma of seasoned oil and grease mixed with the lingering notes of metal dust tell of the hours and hours of dedication and passionate work that takes place in this shop. On the main floor, an impressive line of restored, refurbished and a few unrestored originals sit ready to turn the key and go. Walking deeper into the back halls of the shop, the extent of the IMW inventory is realized, parts and components filling cabinets and racks sit ready and waiting to be installed on the right machine.
