I checked Phil's posted ad as soon as it hit here and it was already unavailable. Those are my own personal favourite models. Never seem to find them locally anymore so I bought myself the next best thing (a 1982 RRL8TD)! Wouldn't mind having another *just in case*…so feel free to alert me if you come across another good one!
Hey Chris congrats. Ours had the same issue but through repeated chrome polishing the pits seem to disappear. I guess it depends on whether they are big or small pits.
