Tom,
You need to look up a pal of mine in your area - Steve Barrett.
He lives off of Rt 4 just before you get onto the Solomon's Bridge going
over into Calvert County. He's riding a '74 LAPD Eldo I brought out to
him from St Joe, Missouri. Drop me a line jumpjg (at) hotmail (dot) com
& I'll give you contact info.

The PO of my Eldo put Chen Sheng 4.5x18 tires on the front
and back. These are clearly too wide for Eldo rims, and
very straight walled - like they were made for a sidecar.
The Eldo went into a wobble at only 50mph on them, not to
mention they were butt ugly and so big the rear wheel was
on the ground on the centerstand! One of the first
things I did to the bike was replace them, and its cured
the wobble (see my earlier msg).

Anyway - they are yours for the 1) asking and 2) picking
up - I can't imagine they're expensive enough to warrant
shipping. I live in Southern MD (Hollywood) , and I work
in Herndon VA. If you can get to that area (or reasonably
in between) and you want these - send me an email off
list, first come, first served.
