Title: "Estate" CL find, just plain "Nuts" UPDATED
Post by: Scott Zee on October 27, 2015, 03:18:05 PM
GRAIL ALERT>>>>>>>Here's the 1st couple pics I have of the Chestnut I picked up today. It was a single family cooker that's been in storage for the last 15 yrs. and lovingly used sparingly before that. She does have a few beauty marks but the lid is really straight except for the rim rash. She's complete and original. Twist pan is there and should clean up nicely. the original cooking grate looks like it might clean up nice as well. Tires are solid and all 3 thumbscrews and all vents turn freely. No time to even wipe down tonight. that'll have to wait for the morning. Then some more pics will be added.

Glad to see it come into the WKC family.  I got the "if they don't buy it, you're next in line" text from the seller. Good grab. You cost me an awesome grill, but saved me the 75min drive. Congrats!!!
