My Redhead all cleaned up.
« on: August 17, 2016, 05:58:01 AM »

OOPS! How did that get there?

Now that's the 1999 Master Touch I got off craigslist last week. Just needed a good scrub. I bought it from a great old guy that included a charcoal starter, a bag of charcoal, a hang on tool holder and the owners manual. He bought it new in 99.

Looks like the ash bucket was in real good shape when you picked her up.

Now that's a redhead if I bring home it's divorce city for sure.... I can't cover that one up in my closet for a year while she absorbs into the other redheads.... I'd bet she's got a dirty angle... (old timers here will get that joke)

I'm particularly fond of your DD Redhead. Does the fade lid match the bowl?

She is a beauty!  Her pair looks bit flat though.  Spar varnish on them and whitewalls will make her perfect. :D
