Bridgeport barrels have the CC on the right cylinder and the 1970, non Bridgeport barrels have this also, H1A's & above don't have this (I have a 70 H1A whi"h doesn't have the CC stamped on the right barrel

So i knew the early models were worth some good money, but this much? A pretty rusty 69 sells for over $6,000? Besides the shocks, there's only some very minor surface rust on the one i picked up.

I would say yours is legitimately worth whatever the poor sap paid for that piece of crap from Junky Claw! :(

I would sell my piece for crap, matching numbers 69 for a lot less. Has windowed carbs, missing tank and no bridge ports. Motor turns over nicely. A least you don't have worry about them breaking when they won't come off.

I would have never guessed that '69 would have been bid up that high. In that condition? Makes no $en$e. :crazy:

Any chance you'd sell a few parts off of it? I'm missing a few parts for mine to restore (kick lever, rear grab bar, and my gauges are crushed).
