I saw this pop up in Wisconsin a few weeks ago. I have a friend who lives up there and they were able to get it for me. Apparently I just stole it out from under Stu who lives somewhere up there beyond the cheddar curtain. Now I'm not sure why Stu (Mr. 18") was trying to get this fine 22 but it ended up down here, back where it came from in the first place....
Here are a few quick pictures. I didn't even put the legs on, it needs a cleaning and a little TLC. It may have to wait until the spring, but I'm pretty happy I got my hands on a lime. It will look pretty sweet next to my yellow...

Overall in really nice shape. It has the usual chips on the handle area, and one tiny chip on the side of the lid. The bottom is in nice shape as well. The vents are frozen, but they will be eays to free up. Not really anything in the way of the crazing and cracking you sometimes see. It's not Jeff or Stu perfect but I was excited to get my hands on a lime...
Brian
That's sharp !!!
I need to branch out, got a few reds & one hunter green sort of newer one...that's it.... ::)
If that's what you want to do then do it. I think you need a few new ones...
Brian
For a second, I thought you stole the 18" limey back. ;D Nice looking 22". So it was originally from Chicago? I mean, the original owner had it there? I'm wanting a 'Cado one but I like the Limeys too.
Craig
Sweeeeet! How did all those succulant limes end up there? I neeeeed to pick me one soon.
Brian, you are such an enabler.
Awesome!

Not really sure how to "work the ads" CL / EBay, so I'd need spiritual guidance from y'all....
Maybe a thread on the fine points of search & accqusition ?
Technically they all came from Chicago in the first place! :P
Brian
JUst go on Craigslist.com and type in weber. That's what I do.

Or Webber. ::)
I got a sweet redhead searching Webber. I'm sure everyone here will give you a list of 20 things they search for....
Brian
How do you score the limes & yellows?
Inquiring minds want to know !!!

J/K, Very nice score! :D I bet it will be quite the looker soon. :)

Nice looking grill Zav...as for swiping it, one word.....karma. ;) Ill keep my eyes open for another.....
@Buckie...be patient. I actually have an app on my phone that tells me every time the word Weber is posted. Not saying you need that but it helps a little. One thing you have going for you is you don't have 6-8 grill sharks living within an hour of you fighting to get all this stuff. If this is any inspiration, this pictures represents one year worth of collecting. I got all this in one years time. It doesn't even show my Yellow, Lime, or the Seville...

@Duke....Ah No not that Friend. An actual friend, not a complete and utter ass...
@G...Don't act like I stole it from you. It was posted for days and you didn't call. I called, you snooze you lose...Besides it's not like you needed another lime. It's a 22 not an 18. You prob wanted it just to use it for trade bait to me anyhow....

SHIT !!!!!!
I mean SHIT !!!!
I give up, I'm just going to hybridize the ones I've already got.....
The tiled double (Mesa Azul ) is/ is not included in that statement ?
And great-grandpaw ?
@Zav...you know Im joking....it found a good home. By the way, you forgot to mention the Ranch...
I forgot about that picture. How many 22 reds do you have currently Brian?
Craig
App.... There's an app????
Ok time to spill the beans
What's the app called?
I did build Mesa Azul two summers ago, but it originally had black grills. I got the blue grills for it last summer, from Troy and AJ. Old Grandpa, I just got him (via Jeff) in August/September. Jeff found it up in Wisconsin, and brought it back for me. Was $10.

Your good! I had the only 22 for a very shot time..I wish I was in CA for that $20 Yellow.

@ G YOUR RIGHT I FORGOT THE RANCH! Buckie, I have an old 60's ranch too... G we both have lime's it's all good...I have handles to send you. I'm gonna mail them tomorrow.
@ Husker....I just have these four. I am willing to part with some of them though...
@ Hogsy...I use Craigs notification. but there are literally 20 apps. I like Craigs Notification because it puts an icon in the tool bar every time a posting with the word Weber is posted.
@ glrasmussen....I'm just trying to keep up with you brother.
Brian
"Buckie, I have an old 60's ranch too... "
That's what I meant by great grandpa......
I remember stuff like that !!!

I know we've seen these before... but every time I get the same reaction; :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o 8)
Maybe if it's sunny this weekend I'll try to get a new family portrait. The one problem I have, is the ranch kettle is frozen into the ground and I can't move it...
Brian
Everyone who sees this picture always say they love old Grandpa the best...Don't know why but they all gravitate to that grill...
Brian
Brian, my daughtr is going to be jealous. I told here if a lime green ever shows up within the state I would go get it for her.

It's the barnacles.
I forgot to mention I set Mesa Azul on fire. Nothing too bad. I was cooking a pizza and the fire got a little too hot 800+, the one leg spontaneously combusted. I need to get some sort of insulation for it....I usually always cook it on my performer but I was lazy and didn't move the pizza oven...

Yes the APP! I am pretty sure that that is the key. I know it has to be the "purchased " APP. From what I have heard, it hits your phone before the I-net.
What's it called???? Brian ?anyone?

I need it by spring. It has really slowed down in MN.
I need it today.... It's 113f outside ,half the country is covered in bush fires and I'm bored
Hogsy, how high did you cook that pizza? Did you start those brush fires with that old gasser...just kidding

Have Beer? Your fine! :)
Oh I have beer
I should of written bored and pissed ;)

Hogsy, I told you what the app was last night, go back to page two....If you are to drunk to do that, I use craigs notification. There are 20 apps out there but I like that one....
Brian
Yeah my bad.... And I was a little tipsy last night must of been the hot weather :)
I thought you meant an app that notifies you every time the word weber was posted on the web
Jeez you'd be sorting through some crap if that was the case

Brian,
Do you have the free app or purchased app?
Greg
Just the free one...
Brian
See I bet someone with that app got that red mastertouch....

Probably. I have been doing some digging. From what I have been told, if you have the purchased APP, it hits your phone
before the free version and the internet.

I vote Margarita. Oh, you mean the app. :P
Maybe I'll have to get the one you pay for.
Brian
I bet you guys could cook pizzas on those gas kettles without turning them on right now. Please send more pictures. I like looking at pictures from other parts of the world I have never visited. Especially from you guys! ;D Stay cool out ther Hogsy and Golly!
