I placed a wanted ad a few weeks back looking for a 22" Avocado and lucky for me a got a few responses. It was hard to chose between the two so i pulled the trigger on both! I went through the Pat Pending last weekend and hope to work on the other this coming week.
I'm still trying to figure out dates.

If anyone is a VW Bus fan like myself, you'd recognize the color of a Caribbean as very close to VW's "Mango".

I want to extend a heart felt thanks to the two sellers for their honesty, patience and willingness to let the kettles go to a new home. I wont mention any names but if they want to respond ill leave that up to them. It would be a pleasure to do business with either of them again!

You did a fantastic cleanup on a worthy kettle. Glad it went to a good home and was a pleasure working with you! Now to roll some smoke out of that pretty thing!!

Thanks again for letting it go and all of your help getting it boxed up. Did we come to a consensus as to the year? 69-72?

I'm hoping to fire it up this weekend.

Nice! Gotta love the cados. I grew up with one from 1972. It was my first restore when I came here. It now lives at the cabin, along with a little brother, among others.
