Clandestine Chicago meet up, at an undisclosed location

[zavod44]

There is a secret meet up going down, with epic trading going on, possibly as many 15 grills trading hands, more details later...   This is the back of the van right now....

Epic, this will be interesting. I hope there are pictures to follow. Van is a little light...

[G$]

Brian please tell me you are not sending a chestnut coppertone farther away from me!

[Jeff]

There is another vintage grill in that van as of now...next stop....Gurnee

[Duke]

In the light that chestnut looks dark yellow or light orange. I have a new appreciation for the chestnuts. I have a feeling tery and his red flattie are in on this.

What is it Gummi always posts? "DIS GONNA BE GOOD!" 


The Chestnuts, like the Lime's have grown on me over time.  The two tone mist is killer.

[G$]

Yes, these threads are awesome.

Secret?  Sounds sneaky.....  I guess the secret is out now.   I hope there is a group shot of the trade items in a coming post!

[MartyG]

I wonder if Jeff's recent Wood Dale is in the mix? Guess we'll have to wait and see.

I can tell you I have no fewer than seven grills in my car including a stainless performer and a ranch....

Three may have been upwards of 20 grills change hands outside Chicago today.  It went down in Gurnee... there were so many grills out there, the rent-a-cop stopped and told Terry there was no tailgating in the lot..... No shit....

Lol... that is secret! No group shot?  What gives.... did you all take an oath or something?

[zavod44]

First stop Jeff's house, picked up the Yellow, then headed an hour and fifteen minutes North...

[zavod44]

Next stop Bass pro parking lot...


and the exchange began




and it kept coming out of Stu's truck.






And coming







until my van looked like this...















Stu's truck and Terry's SUV looked about the same....


In case anyone got confused, CHICAGO is the grill mecca, don't let anyone from San Jose tell you otherwise.....
