I guessed wrong on the grab rail/reat fender bolt and washer, according to the parts book they're supposed to be a regular 8x16 bolt and a spring washer, my bad.

Fork lock cover appears to be plastic. Originally they were chrome.

Fender bolts look like 6mm with a 10mm head - not the correct 5mm bolts. Washers missing.

Lock washer missing on headlight case setting bolt.

Seamed tank? For that serial number I would have expected a seamless tank.

There should be a fuel tank crossover line for this early of a model. There isn't one.

Do we need to keep looking or can we go to bed????

I'm not totally sure who has Trained Ya Eyes and Knowledge of these CL77 bikes but I'm impressed as to how many faults you identify.
I say this as a person I know purchased 2 CL77 bikes and they were similar to this.
What actual value would ya place for this as ya see it now and have identified any concerns?. ......lm

Seamed tank and no crossover are correct for a 67.

The braided wire is for the e-ignition stated in the auction.

Rear pegs are correct as well.

Perches and levers are wrong.

Black fork lock cover correct.

Seat should have silver piping

Top clamp and handlebar clamp should be bare, not painted.

You guys have caught many things that are not correct for sure!

Picky but clutch cable routed wrong, flat head screw in upper right of dyno cover should be a pan head.

Given matching numbers and clear title, if I was a buyer I think something between $3-4K would be fair.
As an owner, I hope it runs up!
