Is this worth a start
I want a Bandera, but that's prolly not going to happen in Vegas. What do you think of this for $50 bucks or less? Is this a COS or something better?

Here is a recent thread on that smoker: http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/sh...d.php?t=184578 or just search for "New Braunfels Black Diamond" or "New Braunfels Hondo" The NB Hondo / Black Diamond is still considered a COS, but it is a quality COS with thicker metal than most of the newer COS.. and it can be modded to work well.

If you are willing to put some effort into cleaning it up, it's definitely worth the $50 as it's the older model NBBD made from heavier gauge steel as bbqgeekess said.

It looks like the gas ignition is gone and it looks as though it's never been under any cover at all so I'd probably ask for more pictures or if possible go and see it in person to determine how much work she'll need. I know that mine is completely rusted through on the bottom of the firebox and I now use the smoke chamber as a charcoal grill.
