Found a 18" Avacado
« on: January 04, 2015, 10:16:06 AM »
This morning my buddy Pete and I were walking the Cypress swap meet.  Pete noticed a little green BBQ and asked me what that was.  Lol, I almost gagged up my Chorizo Burrito.  Went over to the little old guy  and asked how much he told me he would take no less then $10.00.  Sold.  I'll post more detailed pics later but overall it's not horrible.  The lid is just about perfect.


May need some advice on this restore.

Thanks Mat @SixZeroFour.  This is more than a Bath and Scrub.  2 of the 3 legs Sockets are rotted through.  I'm going to be asking many questions.
