Refurb of a DG Commodore

[ejames]

I decided to take a break from playing with tampers and work on some pipes for my Skyliner display. Finished this one up yesterday. This one just needed a little shining up. I need to find three more Commodores to fill the card on the diplay--holds six.Problem is that Commodores are rather hard to find.

Looks good Ed, I will keep my eye out for commodores.

You're right.....there aint many Commodores that turn up for sale. You got a nice one and good luck filling your card.

One of my last DG's is a bent Commodore with a chrome band. If you need/want it give me a shout :D

Love my commodore which I think is a 38 or 39 rusticated.

 

[ejames]

Thanks Gents!

Dave, I appreciate that!!

docrx,does your Commodore look like this? This is a shape 39,don't think there is a 38- in the sparta made pipes anyway

Wow, that is a sharp looking Commodore, you sure don't see many of them. Will you smoke that one?

Nice cleanup job on the Commodore. It's a beauty.

Probably not Al. I have plenty of pipes to smoke,no need to smoke the pretty ones! They mostly collect dust! Besides,I prefer filter pipes.
Thanks Scott & cajunguy!

docrx,I can't find a 38 on any of my shape charts. Sounds like what you have is a 36-Large Billiard.

I saw one at an antique shop last week and granted it was busted up pretty bad I asked the guy how much and he told me it went with the stand up ashtray that was $200 and WOULDN'T sell it otherwise
