Title: My New Greenie
Post by: hawgheaven on March 05, 2018, 02:03:39 AM
Thanks to Mr.CPHo... we struck a deal and now... meet my 18" Greenie. I ain't got her totally buffed up yet, but she gonna be a cooker, not a looker! Damn fine shape for a '98! Solid as all hell, and yes, I DID install the triangle upside-down... My nipples were too hard and got in the way of my vision when installing it...  :) Actually, didn't even notice it until I took the pix. Oops.

Thanks again Charlie! I'm lovin' this thing!!

I'm glad this greenie found a loving new home with you, hawgheaven.

BTW, those handles came off a GGA and I really liked the color contrast on the green.

Enjoy!

Nice little green. Perfect for tail gating at an Oakland A's game. I probably have taken apart and reassembled close to 100 kettles now.  If I get distracted, I still do that from time to time.  I will also admit to reassembling one caddywhompus. It was the final step in the restoration of "Baby Blue", my B Code 18" blue MBH that is the June photo of this years calendar (2018).  I blame the muck up @pbe gummi bear as he was present and we were talking. (lol)  Gotta blame someone other than me........................
