Title: 26er pickup
Post by: Vwbuggin64 on May 11, 2022, 12:24:27 PM
Found this guy on FB marketplace last week. PMed the lady Sat and she said someone is coming for it Monday. Well, shot her another message asking if it was ever picked up. Nope it wasnt. Went this morning and now its in the collection. Im going to grab a new handle or find a used one. Anyone have any parts? Paid a hefty sum of $30.00.

Great score for $30, my 26er is my daily driver.
Do you need a lid or bowl handle? I'll check my stash and see what I have available.

That would be awesome if you can find one. I need the entire handle (metal and all). I can bolt it on or weld.

I have a green and blue handle if that helps you.  The green one already has holes.

Received the handle from Mr CPHo and put it on with some new hardware. Also fixed the ash sweepers because they looked like they were taking off and had to cut down the front leg a little. When I picked it up it was doing the Carolina squat. Pic is with new handle.

Just finished my first cook on it! Chicken for work tomorrow and through the week. Used 2 different sauces, double basted. B&B charcoal and a chunk of Hickory were my choices for fuel.
