Its Here (Part 2).............

Well, after about three weeks the cart finally arrived. A sweet 1968 chestnut seqouia. A some fade to the stain on the top of the cart. I am going to leave it as is for now. Thank you to the great seller.
~A CAUTION ABOUT GREYHOUND~ I've shipped a couple items greyhound package express with good luck. This was an exception. The maximum dimension size on their
website is not entirely accurate. This cart turned on its side meets the Greyhound max requirements. However, these requirements are for their old buses. The cart made it almost halfway and got stuck at the Columbus, Ohio terminal. The greyhound buses running from Columbus south through Nashville are part of their new fleet. The storage compartments on the new fleet are much smaller. Thus the maximum package size is a good bit smaller. Greyhound apologized for the confusion regarding the package size disclosure. In the end, a great transport guy from Uship rescued the cart from the Columbus terminal, Greyhound refunded my $$, and the cart arrived safely.

@Troy
I was told the look on the Greyhound folks faces was priceless when the UShip guy rescued the package. LOL

That is definitely a beautiful grill!
I can only imagine the greyhound guys wondering what the hell was in that box!
