Anyone have any info on spicing old Penns up?

The Reel Restorer site in FL is down, wondering if he is still doing it or what?

Could do the bailess kit and everything myself, but I kinda want to turn it into a "Van Penn" or "Penn Staal" and I def do not trust myself doing that.

Thanks,
beave

After swapping E mails with Dave I drilled my own using my Drill press, Came out pretty good. Then sent it to the reel restorer
