72 penton six day restoration

[backkraker]

Just purchased a 72 six day off ebay with restored tank and seat and now I would like the POGS advice on where to buy rims, what type, or should I have the originals rechromed and put on stainless spokes then trued

I'm also looking for new rims.

I'm told the Radaelli Chrome Rims rims are still being made and are sold by Walridge Motors.  I have not had the time to call them get the details.  It appears they also sell the correct spokes and nipples.

Here's a link to their PDF format web catalog.

Walridge is a good source for Radaelli rims and spokes. I have used two sets from them with quick delivery and great results. $325 US per set with galv spokes. Talk to Mike if you can. Give him your Penton model and year, and he will know what you need. Good luck.
