I want to thank @jamesnomore for this grill and the excellent, prompt shipping job. You're a great grillfella and I appreciate it. I'm very excited to add this to the collection.
I did get a kick out of my wife thinking I bought a glen blue 26 as it was shipped in the box. She was disappointed. ....she thinks the blue color is "cute."

To her dismay, it was another "old gray grill." Alas, my bride, it is not any ordinary old gray grill! It's a thumbscrew Fleetwood, I said! Now, all I need is a Westerner!, I said.
What's a westerner?, she replied 
, unimpressed, but genuinely happy for me.

Congrats on the Fleetwood AND getting "permission" from the wife to buy the glen blue 26er. ;)

Quote from: ReanimatedRobot on August 08, 2020, 04:49:02 AMI concur it sounded like an approval to buy a Glen Blue to me! Of course if you get in trouble we never said anything! LOL

Nice Thumbscrew 26r Fleetwood. Many of US would like a Westerner. I am in need of a Westerner and a Chief to complete my 26 collction
