This one's been off and on different listings for quite some time. No doubt some better pictures and description might be more helpful. If anyone is interested in making him an "offer" I would be willing to pick it up and start it's way to a new home for a small donation to the gas fund.

Thanks for the tip, Dale. I bought an old Steel Tanker Penton a few years ago on a tip from you. It was misclassified on Ebay as a Cheney/Sachs... joe
Hmmm, This one with another off listing on the west coast.

Notice the rivets around the tank. From recent discussion, would this be a Mettco modification?
Mettco never used the toaster tank and didnt use regular rivets like that.

I've been watching this one on ebay for months. Wonder why it hasn't moved yet? Appears to be mostly complete and in good shape!
Just sayin' ....
Too much. If you ask me thats a $1000 bike tops, if that.

i agree i have seen that bike many times at different swapmeets here in michigan, he is very proud of that bike, with that said if anyone here buys it i can pick up and store it or bring it mid ohio later dave when in doubt gas it
