The Elusive,Extravagant, EXPENSIVE .PENN 16/0 is about all I need for my modest Collection as well but I just can't see paying 7 hundred to 1200 or more for one .There are a few on the Bay but not so good shape and a whoppin Thousand Bux .
This one says it has a Good Engine ....lol

One or more are from Japan and the Seller has some Bad FEEDBACK as to shipping when they say Free but you get exorbitant import duties stuck on it .
I buy stuff from Japan all the time without any duties or import fees so WHADDUP wid Dat ?
Maybe it has to do with over a certain amount ?
Thought about buying the Right sideplate ,Foot, a spool and some crossbars and building one from one of my 114/0's as pieces come up now and then and that's the only difference (the Width) I understand some of the Early versions had smaller guts tho.
