Had this one for about a year and just got around to getting her cleaned up a little. My Blue is set to arrive next weekend and once that gets here, I will do a family shot of all the MT's; Red, Blue, Black and Green. This was was in pretty good shape, only took about an hour or so to get her cleaned up. Problem is that I just realized that its missing the lid rollers >:(
Cado's are up on the block to get cleaned up tomorrow..
Enjoy..

That red cleaned up nicely!
Pardon my ignorance but that two tone I see on the red, is that a result from the heat over time or did weber intentionally paint them that way? Either way that's a sweet grill!
The two tone red is OEM from Weber on certain red grills. Lovely grill,
@indy82z!
That's a beauty of a grill , family shot will be awesome ...can't wait :)

Yeah, the fades were on Avacado, Reds (some), Brownies (some), the older peach & gray color ones.....maybe others I'm forgetting?
Mist or "fade ring" kettles:
1. Chestnut Coppertone 1956-68
2. Avocado Green: 1967-73
3. Copper Mist/Chocolate: 1969-1991ish
4. Some of the Reds made between around 1984-1992 then most of the Reds made from 1993-1999.
EDIT: I left out the "Plainsman" light grey with dark grey mist from 1962-63.
Beautiful red! What thermometer did you use in that? I love my red MT.

Jeez..tough crowd... ;D I actually did polish them, they just did not shine up like some others have. I might just have to purchase some new ones.
Thanks on the rollers...let me know what I owe you..
Great looking MT
