Marin experts - is this an Eldridge Grade?

Seen this on eBay.

It all looks to be right - stem / badging colour. Rear mech is Deore DX - looks like the crankset it wrong though. I think I spot a Mavic sticker on the wheels.

Reason I ask is there's a picture of the frame number. M63LAD020.

I would have said a 93 19" Muirwoods. Would someone have gone to that much effort?

Don't want to waste my time looking if it's not right.

Re:

That's what I thought.

I have 2 - 99 Eldridge & 94 Palisades.

They both fit with this frame number decoder:

I guess this didn't apply to them all.

I probably need to have a look. Bikes on the coast tend to rust badly.

That looks rough for 75quid, I’d keep looking if I were you, not rare bikes, bound to me another around the corner

Not sure if you're local to this?

Re:

I saw that one.

Unfortunately I'm just outside Brighton ... no postage either.

I'm sure something will turn up!
