This 1973 Eldorado was purchased from the original owner about 20 years ago, nd has been stored inside my heated garage the entire time. I have only ridden it about 1000 miles. My mechanic just tuned it up and everything is in excellent working order. I believe the paint to be original and it still has a nice shine. The machine is a pleasure to ride, he transmission shifts great, he engine idles down after the choke is turned off, here is no smoke, ll of the electrical systems work as they should. The bike is stock except for the mufflers (of which the chrome has failed), nd the chromed side covers. I have the riders manual and if I can find it the tool kit. The bike looks as it should with only about 11k miles. The engine and frame numbers match, he tires, lthough old have no rot and plenty of tread. This is an outstanding original Eldorado, nd in my opinion the best of the series, ith the front drum, he five speed, nd the 850 engine. I have had an Ambassador, n 850t, 50t3, nd newer California and I have always liked this model the best. Serious buyers can call my mechanic with any questions at 312-972-7614. The bike is located in West Seattle WA. The shipping is your responsibility, owever it can remain in the garage until shipping can be arranged for several weeks. International bidders please contact me before bidding, hanks Tom
