Re: Hickey product identification
I've got the side saddle tanks and mine look the same with the long bolts that go down through them. I don't know if they were stamped. I believe there is a thread that explains that a lot of Hickey stuff was manufactured by other companies and just sold through the Hickey catalog.

Re: Hickey product identification
That aux tank looks identical to my Hickey tank with the location of the vent and hold down bolts. I have noticed that the Hickey tanks have fuel fillers that poke through the upper rear quarter panel, and some other manufacturers of these tanks have fuel fillers that are just on the top of the tank. I would say yours is a Hickey. I cannot help you with the push bar, but it looks like the one in the catalogue. Check for bolt holes to mount the extra headlight guards on the sides of the uprights. If you have those, chances are better that its a Hickey.

Re: Hickey product identification
Looks pretty similar to what I've seen. Might be a VH or a capital h somewhere. I know the axle gear covers do.
