Title: Yellow 18" BAR-B-KETTLE
Post by: Idahawk on May 14, 2013, 12:21:43 PM
No Great Story , just a CL deal I got to first :)
The person I got it from had bought a storage unit on Saturday and it was sitting leg less in a box wrapped in a blanket . He looked it up and realized he had a old one , but he didn't know how rare and other than the fact that I just don't see yellow anythings around here neither did I .

The asking price was $75.00 , from the photos it looked beat and scratched , which I tried to use to drive down the price , but he claimed it was stain which was the case so that ended that attempt. I then busted out my old stand by line which 60% of the time works every time, but you better be in a position to move quickly . I asked him what his best price would be if I came and picked it up right then , after a long pause I said nobody likes waiting around for CL deals , you can be done with this right now and move on to bigger and better things . He dropped to $60.00 and I sent the wife over straight away to get it.

The stain came right off , I added some legs and an ash pan for now and washed and polished it up . I dumped in a  chimney to see it in all it's glory .
