Nice score and nice job on the restore. I have a couple like that. I call them RatRods and they are my go-to grills.
Buckie, are you sure that's a "D"? Looks like a poorly stamped "P" to me.
Yeah, quite possible.....thought I'd found the White Buffalo, but it's from a Brown Mastertouch, so wouldn't be available 'till 1993 or something......
Or, it might stand for "Demo" somehow?
@Harbormaster
One problem with this "D" vent is that it is stamped "PALATINE, ILL"
In 1983 "E" code, the vents were still stamped "ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, ILL". They switched to Palatine in 1984 "F" code.
That makes more sense than a MasterTouch in 1982.............
A goofy "P" like Clark says maybe makes the most sense,,,,,A Brown MasterTouch makes the least sense of all........Alton Brown's, Golly &/or Hogsy's & I don't think there's many more out there.......
