It just makes me cry !

OK...I give up....I'm going to put the 74 Eldo up for sale for $1000. I can't get any money together to buy what parts it needs, so I want it out of here.It is a rolling basket. Motor and tranny are out and split, but not in pieces. It runs good, no real leaks. What it needs:A new timing chain tensioner. I pulled the timing chest cover, and the original one is shot.A set of clutch plates. I bought a new cable, but the plates are badly worn.A throttle set-up and ALL throttle/choke cables. I gave away the Amals with throttle and all, but I have a set of good delOrtos.Brake hoses for the front disc, and a caliper kit would help, as the caliper only contacts one side of the disk.A pair of mufflers....the ones on it work, but are rusted away.A correct battery. It has a good one, but it is too tall and fouls the side covers.That is all I know of. It did run good, but the clutch was so full of ground up friction material, it wouldn't disengage, making it unrideable. My mistake was believing the guy I bought it from who made it sound really sweet. I can't ship or deliver, so bring a truck!!Tim Crump6786 Council Heights WayLas Vegas NV702-444-8608
