Norton Commando description

Vintage 1973 Norton 750cc Commando orange colored metal flake tank and side covers. It's been garaged for many years and needs some cleaning/restoration TLC and wiring work for sure (Zenner Diode and the charging system wiring). Includes owner's manual mirrors gas tank and assigned valid IL title. Gas tank is about half full of old fuel and will need to be drained and a good cleaning as well as probably the carbs. May need both front and back tires and tubes replaced as well as a battery seat oil change and maybe a tuneup. Last ran in the mid 80's maybe late 80's I believe. Pistons are free and moving was able to kick it. Available for inspection if seriously interested. Thanks. Email or call leave a clear message/number for callback (No Caller ID). Thanks.
