My New MT
« on: February 05, 2015, 12:44:36 PM »

Did I mention it was a redhead?




There's a nice little goodie laying there...




This made me happy...




Almost perfect -- found some crazing. Dang, maybe I should take it back     :o       yeah right...




Last of the reds?...





As an extra added bonus -- NIB...



Even had the receipt from 1992. It's been moved to another Grillfella...





A couple more R's to go.





Dude, relax your chicken.

That's rough.....Red in that model is nice....Blues are much easier to come by as far as I can tell..... 8)

The red on the EE MT is brighter, with a slight fade, and not as shiny as the J it's replacing...

Dude, relax your chicken.

A few chips from crazing, but otherwise very solid...

Awesome collection of REDS!

As many kettles as I've run through, it just seems like the Redheads take all the abuse at the spot welds. Anyone else notice that?
