A code Green 18
« on: June 19, 2019, 12:33:20 PM »
I'm at work yesterday and @DrewZ text me a link. Took a few minutes to look at it and I couldn't believe it.
Never thought I would see one around these parts. I asked Drew to reach out as I couldn't at the time.
A little later I get home and PM seller who responds PENDING PICKUP. I asked if I was next and she said No.
I tried reaching out to Drew to see if she got back to him but she hadn't. She PMs me a little while later asking if I was still interested. HELL YA! I'm giving the person before you until 8AM and if not could I be there at 11AM. No problem I told her. Well I shared and asked a few members here for Good Vibes and after a night of fingers crossed while biting my nails, no word from the seller. Now last night I told her to mark the ad SOLD if she wants, consider it sold either way. She did. I gave her my phone number and asked her to just text me in the AM. It was 8:30 and nothing from the seller so I PM her. She replied That she was glad I checked as all our PMs were gone from her phone. Gave me her address and said come get it, it's yours.
3 hours RT and I cant be happier. One off the list to boot.







I will get more pictures soon. I'm in need of a bowl vent. A slight bit of crazing and grate strap pops but she still looks nice. I owe this all to @DrewZ as I would have been a day late and a dollar short on this one.
But how 2 or 3 people before me couldn't get it, I understand fully when I got there. She was moving today.

Just an initial cleaning. Kroil on legs at sockets for 4 hours but they are off. Straightened out triangle as well.
I've got my work cut out for me but she will shine again. Anyone have a period correct bowl vent? I have an 18 small tab vent to trade. TIA.

I came so close to popping on this one. I saw the posting when it was 5 minutes old and no one had messaged about it yet. Glad someone who appreciates it got it. Congratulations

I can't thank you enough. Been looking for a while. Never expected it here in the NE though.
It really helped me out. I was sweating this one.



I will post about the 22 soon.
