Hello DKWRACER, sounds like these 10th anniversary stickers are what I need on my 77 GS 250! [ So I am guessing these stickers came on the new 77's? Also was the location of the sticker on both side panels or did it vary as to where they were placed? You have might guessed that I've never seen an original Penton with these stickers on it. Thanks for any help, Crash Carden
    [8D] Hey Randy I would like a couple of the 10th anniversary stickers if you could let me know how much they are I will send the extra money on the check for the 2005 Penton calender. Thanks again, Crash Carden PS: Keep up the good work! [^]

[DKWRACER]

Crash, perhaps another great mistry in the evolution of the 1977 Penton. In examination of the decal, it commemorates years 1967 to 1977, and also the 51st. ISDT US Silver Vase Team..Names like Carl Cranke, Dane Leimbach, Jack Penton, Tom Penton are on this decal...I can't wait to hear the stories!!!!

AW SHUCKS  [:I]  Thanks guys.  

Tom, Which ones did you end up using? Chrome or silver???  Also, what price did I tell you?  I lost my paper with the info.

Crash, I'm holding the last calendar for you. You can send it when Tom gives us the info.

[DKWRACER]

Randy, I used the first iteration and am sending the chrome ones back to you with a check for 20.00 for four...THANK YOU SIR!!

Hello Randy, DKWRACER, I was wondering if Randy made up both styles of the 10th anniversary sticker's [?] I see there is one representing the Silver Vase Team with the names of Carl Cranke,Dane Leimbach,Jack Penton, and Tom Penton. Then the other style with Penton oval in center and crest around the bottom with 10th anniversary around the outer edge. So Randy did you make up two types? If so I would like  one of each. Also I just need a price so I can send the check out ASAP along with the calender payment. Thanks for any help. Crash Carden GO TEAM PENTON![8D]

Does anyone know if all 77 models had the 10th anniversary stickers or was it just a select few? I have a 77 model I bought from the original owner that has 10th annversary stickers on it, with some wear. I'm just curious, do I have one of a few or one of many.

Crash,
The one we have is the one with the names on it.  I'm still waiting on them. I'll let you know when I get the final price.  Thanks

Randy  Are you going to bring your decal box to the POG meeting in February at the AMA?  Thanks in advance!

Randy, do you have decals for a steel tanker?  Also, can anybody comment on what I learned about steel tanker color codes under the topic "Steel tanker green"?  I'd like to compare notes with Crash on this before I put down any money for paint.  Are you up for a phone call Crash?  I'm at 508-277-2595.

NOTE: There is a new, really easy-to-use -free- web telephone called Skype (See: http://www.skype.com/ ) All you need is speakers and a microphone on your computer. Once the program is downloaded people who have downloaded it can talk over their computers in real time. The beauty of this is that you can conference call with up to as many as four people at once. It may be good for working out fine details for services, events and trips without running up our phone bills.

Hello Peter, the only paint match work I have done is on the Jackpiner blue & yellow and I had that work done by Mini Craft of FL. and that was done with gel coat.I am sure the steel tank experts will step forward and share their info. with you.

Kip,
I'll bring them along.

Peter,
Sorry, I don't have anything for the steel tankers.

[Rain Man]

Crash, any chance of making copies of that paint chart,?
   I did manage to print off what you have posted to date, I'm trying to gather up some information for an essay on "Penton painting"
