I know already that my chances of finding a back door for a Penny Pack are nearly zero never mind one for the extended base, but unless I attempt I will never know, I am not looking for a recast and that makes my chances even slimmer, I recently got a nice original shipped to me with a broken back door and handle, I would consider buying a beater machine with a good back door.
Any one??????

Many original doors are hard to find, and don't show up as much as they used to, 10 or so years ago.
I know you monitor eBay on a regular basis, and may get lucky. There is always a repro, until a good
original shows up, and the best ones on the market, are made by one of our Forum members, who may
respond, if he has any in stock. No others were made the right way, and his will fit the machine perfect,
with very little trim work. You say that the machine arrived with a broken door and handle. They can
both be welded properly, if they aren't in too many pieces.

Hi Bill
Rick was already in contact with me, he reproduces the standard doors not the extended base, yes it arrived damaged, I have all the pieces and most likely will end up with a repaired back door, a real shame since it was an all original and complete machine with just some minor paint loss, the handles come up more often since Daval used this style handle on other machines, I need to put a claim together for fedex and hopefully they will pay with no issues.
