Title: Sportin' a woody
Post by: Scott Zee on February 16, 2017, 06:25:58 PM
I've been on the lookout for a Wood Dale of any size or color so I can join the mob, lol. I'm scanning CL early this afternoon and a beautiful redhead catches my eye. Turns out to be a 18.5 red Wood Dale, WOOHOO. It's in overall good shape, a few spots of porcelain loss but hey, its over 50 yrs. old. Doesn't have the correct pan and is missing the cooking grate but all thumbscrews turn as well as all the vents. It needs a good cleaning but I had to take a few pics when I got home.  ;D   It's time to change my signature

Congrats on the Wood dale Scott. I saw it at the 2hr  mark and tried for it. I'm glad you got it. Guy selling was even nice enough to let me know it was sold. Looks great.👍
I got one of my reds for $22 the same way. The lady selling wanted 25 but had no change. I had 2 20's and 2 1's. She took $22 😊

searching for a 26.

Congratulations. Have never seen one in person.  Don't think many made it out West in the early days.
