I need a front frender bracket for a 1970 or 71 Penton. It is the wide steel hoop. Buy or trade. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Kip had some made, maybe he can help. Ted
Ted,
Thanks, I will check with Kip. I had one but gave it to a Friend to finish his bike.

I called the salvage yard up north and asked to buy the 69 and 71 steel tankers. He's going to get back to me the first of next week. I also asked about the pipe for Larry and the fender bracket for you if he doesn't want to sell the two bikes. I'll keep in touch and let you know what I find out next week.

Skip,
I think I am going to be in Tucson Monday ot Tuesday. Let me know if that is OK. I will have a trailer with me if we need to go up and get your new bike[:p].

We should head up to see this guys place either way. You'd like to see all the motorcycles and I'm sure we can get a few parts that we need. Tony's got a list of items he wants me to keep an eye out for too.
The maid is coming Monday AM, so your room should be ready. See you when you get here.

Skip,
I will call you today. Since I have a trailer it is probably a good time to make trip. Thanks again.

Just a follow up and thank Nelson and Dave McCullough (Father and Son Team) for getting me the fender bracket. Funny thing is Dave needed a '68 bracket to help complete his low number Penton. Nelson, his Father, found out I had a fender bracket and bought it for Dave for his Birthday. I now end up with the bracket that Dave was going to modify to fit his '68. Thanks for the bracket and the Friendship.

Ron,
You know I have always believed in the old saying, "What comes around goes around". and of course, "One good turn deserves another". Good friends and Pentons make for the best company that we can truly appreciate!
P.S. I'm still looking for that 29 tooth crank gear. I haven't had any luck so far, but Gary said tonight that he can come up with one for you if the need arises before I find it.
I would like to wish everyone early a fantastic Thanksgiving! Mike

I enjoy rebuilding and appreciating Pentons!
