Brad Penn oil in SF Bay Area

I wrote Brad Penn weeks ago, trying to find a local distributor, but they never got back to me. Anyone know of a local one? I thought I heard of someone in San Carlos or something a while back. Thanks.

Jon

I received this response today from Hill Petroleum, Brad Penn's Western States distributor. I'm in the East Bay, so I've asked them to let me know of their distributors out this way. I hope this one works for you.

Hi Doug,
Glad to hear you are interested in purchasing this great American made product. I hope I have found one close to you, if not please contact Norm or me and we will try again
We have a distributor in the Western Bay Area. Please contact Ron at Accessories Plus. 650.591.2400

Thanks and please let me know if this distributor works for you
Have a great New Year!

Thank you
Scheryl Murrain

I've purchased Brad Penn from Ron at Accessories Plus. Really great guy and a decent price on the oil too.

Hey thanks for the help guys , I went by today and picked up two cases of oil. Ron is a very nice guy, and for all you local guys, he told me he always keeps a stock of Brad Penn 20W-50 on hand.

I was told the closest distributer to the Bay Area is Hill Petroleum (Norm Fisher) 800-323-8963, which I think is in CO

It comes out to around $50 a case of oil, that's after tax. A case consists of a quantity of 12, 1 quart bottles.

That is incorrect, Ron stocks Brad Penn oil at his location in Belmont.

Hill Petroleum supplies the local distributors.

For those in the SF East Bay, Monte Berney sells Brad Penn oil out of his shop in
Danville, near Blackhawk. 925 766 4680

Is it the same price as Ron at Belmont?

Anyone know how much Monte sells them for?

Old County Road. I used to run a bunch of rallies on that street. They all started and ended in Palo Alto.

I just spoke to Ron and he is selling a case for $50.30. Nice guy to chat with.

His web address: http://www.cobracountry.com/ap/home.html

He is normally open Mon-Fri 7:30-5:00pm and some Saturdays.

I have a case of BP 20W50 I'm not going to use. Will let it go for $40. Only catch is you need to pick it up. I'm located in the East Bay.
