Thanks Craig!

How did I miss this before?

I have the black Potable 101001 - TANK NOT INCLUDED   ;D

Although, the standoffs inside the lid of mine are missing  :(   (notice no louvers on the lid)

Thanks again.

I think the louvers were added to the lids in the early 80s.

Yeah. And the base changed as well.

I really like the kettle gasser.

Unless I've missed it, I've yet to see a live cook on a gas kettle. Do you cook on yours? :D

But since the indirect/direct deflector is shot, it's pretty much just used as a wok and (insert a very cool accessory name here) burner now (buckie's post)
