Hey Stumpbuster, welcome to the Penton Owners Group website !!
 For the rim, try waldridge  motors in Ontario Canada.  i believe he'listed under the vendors section. It may take a couple of months to get a rim, but they look astronomical once installed on the bike!!
Cheers and of course  "happy trails"

Hi Stumpy, Welcome! I have a used one that's in decent shape, actually quite good for it's age but could stand to be rechromed. No real bad rust, just an area about 3 inches long where the it sat for some time and got pitted. Minor pitting can actully be removed in prep for rechroming if you're interested in going that route. Or, just lace it up and ride! Make me an offer. Keep in mind, new ones are over $100.
