Title: Custom Performer for Dad
Post by: VetteDoc on June 21, 2020, 08:24:18 PM

I was originally going to redo my dads old Genesis 3 for Fathers Day this year but the firebox had some holes in it and he has been a charcoal guy for the last 20 years - so I put some custom touches on a Performer with the folding shelf. I added a gas assist, did the frame in red and no custom is complete without a nice handle from Zavod

Very nice. I like that it’s a compact package opposed to a full size performer and still has gas assist.

Any pics of how you mounted the gas assist?

The second picture is probably the best photo I have, but it's a piece of 2" angle aluminum that I cut a couple of holes out to mount the regulator and installed two riv-nuts to mount it. I used the front panel of a 3rd gen Performer as a template.

Very nice rework, and attention to detail adding the gas assist was a fantastic idea. Great color choice too.
I would would buy  it anyday.
