Thanks Craig. I've been waiting to see that chair again. That's why I don't like to throw anything out. Even wheels too rusty to use for the car can still be used to make chairs. I need 2 more bad wheels before I can make a chair like that.

I'm still waiting for the answer as to wether or not that's the correct shade of straw! I still have it and would like to see it go to a good home.

I don't know if that is the right shade of straw, but I am pretty sure the judging standards call for the arm rests to be black and not powder coated.

Wouldn't that properly be called a rocking wheel chair?

Does this chair "crash and burn" like the tri-cycle on the 1968 TV show Laughin??

V e r y I N T E R E S T I N G ... but stuuupid! as Atie Johnson would say!

It sounds like the chair belongs to Denis4x4 (up above this post)
I just found it in an old picture file.

I like it would look great in my shop, sit it next to the wood stove and put a glass top on that bad A block to set my drink on

Denis4x4 if you would like to send it to a new home that would take cgood care of it let me know
