This may sound funny, but I had a 100 iron barrel back in the 70's that was my second bike, here in the St. Louis area. I have to dig the pictures out, but I think mine was painted this shade or red also?  I painted it green so it would look more like a Six Days. I'll have to do some digging tonight.

Anyone else have any success?

Hey guys,

I finalized the deal on this one today.  Any Highland Lakes, NJ poggers going to Gatorback or Durham, NC any time soon?

Cheers,

Congrats!
I thought it would be cool to leave it as a Penton Trials conversion.

Thanks man.  I'm very excited but if it turns out to be a 100 it may quickly turn into trading iron for at 125.

Simply a head, cylinder and piston change but doubt it is a 100
