F code cold call and rescue
« on: October 21, 2018, 11:15:35 AM »
I drove past this a month ago and it looked neglected and had a linked leg and messed up socket. I stopped in and a very nice 90 year old guy answered the door. We talked 20 minutes and he said he would have to check with his son before he sold it. I had offered 50. These are rare in my parts. Out of the blue he called me yesterday and said he would sell it. He was the original owner.

I still need a leg and and ash sweeps if anyone has a spare.

I’m not a full restoration guy but I couldn’t live with those handles.

Thanks Travis!  I ordered two pair of sweeps on amazon but I still need a back leg if you have a spare.
