Default 1967 Electra Glide

I found this bike in an old shed at a house which I inherited. I don't know much about this bike. About all I can tell you is that It has not been licensed since 1975. I believe every thing is here and original. The engine does kick over and has compression. I have not tried to start the bike. It has approximately 13,000 miles on it. The tank and both fenders are in good shape. I think most chrome parts are savable but need rechromed. The paint is not in great condition. Saddle bags are in good shape. Wheels are pretty rusty and probably need replaced. Engine looks to have been leaking oil. I do believe all aluminum parts are savable. I know it would take allot of work to get this bike up and running and I will probably will just sell it as is. If anyone could tell me a ballpark figure of what it is worth I might be able to start somewhere. If you have any question about bike I will do best to answer them.

Uhhh I'm thinking name your price! Looks complete.
Some on here can get you in the ballpark as far as price.
I'd love to work with that one just not willing to devote a chunk of life to it.
Good luck!

Nice find! It looks like it will clean-up pretty nice with some soap, water, and some polishing.

It's got a lot of potential... I'd like to have it as a project.

my guess ...
as is - 2k
running but not cleaned up - 5k
running and cleaned up - 10k
running and fully restored - 15k+

disclaimer - this is just a guess based on what i've seen other people post here , and some checking on ebay and craigslist over the last few months

man you're very lucky. that's a sweet ride. change the oil, the plugs, make sure the tires are safe, or replace them, and ride the heck out of it. that's exactly what i'd love to find to work on as a project. not to restore, but to bring it back to life, get everything dialed in, clean the insides out of the tank, petcock, carb, check the valves, etc. that's the perfect bike to own. you sure won't lose where you parked it when you're at a rally. after all it's not a vivid black streetglide. that's got the cool factor looking just the way it is. such a neat find you have there.

not so newb's guess above looks to be in the ballpark from what little I have researched. If all numbers match and there have been zero modifications might bring more.

Where is it located?

These numbers sound about right except for the fully restored. Running and all original probably 15k maybe a little more if in great condition. Fully restored a little less.

...agree with that ..EXCEPT...I don't think "cleaned-up" will add $5000.00 unless that means things like wheels replaced, new tires..brakes rebuilt etc..in other words..if all you do is "clean it".without spending more than a hundred or two...I think you can squeeze another $1000, out of it..so $6000.00..but if you sink $1000-$1500 into it and get it road-worthy...then ya...$10,000...just opinion...
