Found this locally, a shepherd ball BQ.
I now know it’s Canadian and early 70’s but does anyone has more information about this grill?
Think it looks cool.
@Joep , that is one fine piece that you have there! Congratulations!
My parents had the orange / silver one back in the 1970s when I was a child.
According to my Dad, it ended up in the scrap metal pile as it developed holes due to neglect, I guess.
They are not porcelain coated, either.
I have managed to have 2 in my possession in the last 4-5 years, however, both have been sold.
The orange/silver one that I had did not say "ball-b-q" on the lid, so I assume it was one of the early editions.
The one I got was in very rough condition, but it was worth rescuing... for $10.
It appeared that a previous owner had painted the lid silver. I managed to get the paint off revealing patchy gold paint.
I also used dowel to replace the wood handles.
Around the time that I was acquiring them,
I did some research online and found some interesting tidbits.
