Selling her.... Seriously you must be joking....

Well if you want to get the most from her, being a '73 Z1, paint her OEM colors and stripping... ;)

With a black frame, new paint and correct bars you could sell it all day for 5k or more.

yea, I plan on stripping the blue off the frame and putting the emblems and stripes back on. it shouldent take much I have all the emblems just need the one side plate. still have the crash bars. but yea, ill be likely looking at 5 k or so when im done
BTW. dose any one know why this particular one has no black on the motor. every one ive seen shows the motor as a partial black. and any idea on where I might find the vin code info. to see wether it is a nebraska bike or not?

according to your numbers i believe its actually a 75 z1,not a 73.the z1 frame and engine #s tend to be within a couple hundred of each other in production # in my experiance anyway B)
