So...Should there be a Poll to see if I will ever cook on the Bandera?

Drilled a hole in the lid hinge/holder for a cotter key to keep the lid secure.







Semi-gloss BBQ paint on the cabinet and door, flat BBQ paint on the firebox and Rustoleum Hammered finish in gloss Black on the frame.





Thats it for now! Next step....The MODS!

Dang it Brian, I've been looking on CL for a Bandera and there you go and find one! Of course I've only been looking under the South KC and Tacoma tabs, not on the rich northender ones! I'm guessing you and JD are down here for the Klose thing huh?

I'm going to stick my nose in here. This Bandera came off McChord Air Force Base, and it was advertised down there for a couple weeks before I even responded to it. I know he was trying to sell it outright but when I saw it he was trying to barter it. I bought it thinking I'd fix it up for my daughter but then she announced she's moving away so I turned around and sold it to swamprb. I'd have kept it but I already have one. They're out there, just keep looking.

That is some incredible work. I didn't know there could be any shiny metail underneath the rust. I wonder if there's any on mine!

Where you can you take parts this big and have them "bead blasted"?

Yeah, he scored his green egg down south too. Brian even tried to set me up with a WSM dirt cheap once, I just waited too long on it. My problem is that I set the search parameters as "bbq smoker" so that I dont have to scroll through all the cars listed! He was a great partner in chili class so I cant bust his chops too much!

Rick announced the date for the Edgewood cookoff, unfortunately it is the same date as the Chehalis comp. August 8th, so mark your callendar Tim!

Oh yeah, I made a vague offer on the Bandera when the guy was looking for barter items before seapitboss picked it up.

You want to search for something like smoker -no -non and check the box that says titles only. That helps a lot.

I totally missed seeing Rick had the Klose class, obviously haven't been on his site for waaaay too long. I stopped by there today thinking that it was Saturday (which it wasn't BTW), might of had entirely too much hot sauce at the Mission last night! I'm guessing Edgewood is the same as last year, ribs and clucker?

Which one you going to JD?

So, GrandMaster must have felt sorry for me (or didn't want me to really start whining and sniveling) and sold me his BSKD today. THANKS AGAIN TIM!

I'll be watching for answers to your post on the Bandera 101 thread.
