Evidence CXXVIII: A New Old One

So Hoss got a line on someone building a swimmer/skater -- although his wife doesn't yet know that he plans to skate in it during the winter? That's going to be an awkward conversation at some point, or maybe he can just skate whenever she's not around... Went there with Dirt McGirt to discuss tranny and coping options. He also fixes up and flips houses, and he told of a nearby one with an empty pool -- he owned it, so we had permission. We go to check it out... Above, Courtney gets FSGrrrrrr.
Some work ahead but bound to be a gem.
the pool we got turned on to wound up being a 1950s-era Anthony, and despite some cancerous lesions quite a gem. Check the ladder-light-box face wall. Joe and Hoss getting dirty cleaning it up.
Crazy pump and filtration system from the 1950s -- held on with vice grips.
Yep -- it's an Anthony. Cool one-screw light (with tab at the bottom to hold it in) and of course that signature coping.
Dirt owned it. BSG over the hip.
The Evidence and Anthony, like two long lost pals. 
Above, Joe Dirt ruling the place: Over the light, over the stairs, over the ladder, over the death box.
And then carving light and ladder, to frontside air truck bash. Unstoppable.
