Title: My Red MHB Adventure
Post by: gunner on November 17, 2013, 09:17:37 AM
Yesterday I was searching craigslist and saw a listing for an old red weber kettle. It turned out to be a Red MHB. It was listed for three hours so I contacted the seller assuming it would be gone, but he got back to me and said it was available still. I made arrangements to go out there today. Turns out the seller was zavod44 (Brian). He is about 50 minutes away from me so I headed out this morning!

Here she is after the pick up. Brian is a super nice dude by the way.

I keep trying to post stuff here on the trading post but no one ever responds so I just post stuff on craigslist.  I posted two Blue grills....no one responded, then a red head ....nothing.  So I guess the best route is bypassing the trading post....straight to Craigs.....
