Well I guess I will get the ball rolling here. CONGRATS on your purchase! I
know the feeling as I just recently bought a 74 Eldo. I have an extra air
cleaner I can send your way if you send me your address. It's not pretty,
has a few dents but I'm sure you can get it all cleaned up real nice.

 Hiya Loopy people,
I just bought a rough V7 off ebay. (Sorry to anyone on this list I
might have bid against).
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2409566912&cat
egory=6713
 

The frame number is 2587 and the engine number is 1223.
How do they line up with other peoples bikes??

Please have a look and tell me what you guys think? It is a 67 or a 68?
I think it's a 1967 because of the starter, bolts holding the rocker
cover down, no ribs on the rocker cover, the flat seat and the lack of
ribs on the crankcase. BUT I notice that the ribs come down lower on
this bike than in some pictures I have seen of VERY early V7 machines.

Anyone got any of the parts I need to complete the machine???Headlight,
carbs, air cleaner, RH sidecover, toolboxes, tail light, tail light
bracket etc.
