I have been quietly scooping up black OTG's and Silver kettles for potential organ donors to some of the recent REDHEADS that I've acquired over the last few months.
I go for the basket cases of craigslist. Redheaded stepchildren. I say to myself, "I don't NEED another one", but when you see these poor neglected Gingers day after day and no one cares (sob!) I have to act. BNIB - Nice, but not my gig.
The blackies will provide handles, Ash can assemblies, pans, charcoal grates, wheels and leg sets that are in decent condition. I still had to sit down and assess what parts I'd have to order online, so......
Beautiful day to pull the covers and line 'em up for a group shot!

The daily drivers are Carolyn's Genesis Silver C, the Performer and the 18" Cajun Bandit.
The Master-Touch "EZ" on the left is awaiting ash sweeps and slide aside rollers and has has a new set of legs harvested from an OTG. I haven't decided to install the new style OTG ash can assembly or mod the old style.
Not shown are the Weber 1000 Hot Rod Coffee Roaster and the Master-Touch Cajun Bandit - Red of course!
Thanks for looking! Stay Hungry!

@swamprb - nice collection. I've never heard of a backwards EE. I've heard of the K being all directions but up....my brother in law has a DR that is crooked...not sure what the deal is with that one.

Beautiful collection of reds! My favorite color, but they don't come up like that around me. Two in the last year and a half or so...

Both of my "K's" are Kittywampus! I need a better camera to get a close up of the Bassacwards EE

Excellent collection @swamprb. Love them redheads, they're kissed by fire before their ever lit.
What color is the other Q (bottom shelf of the ss table) that you kept it covered up?

Well, if you heard my wife when she saw them lined up and asked "where did these come from? and I hope you aren't planning on keeping them here?!!"
Not a fan of MBH's. I'll RRR them, but they find new homes. This is one that got a handle mod.

I was thinking the same thing!
After my recent 'cado score, and the Cheif I think I'm only into MBH's now!

It seems to be a Weber black hole in my area so I'd be happy with any color really!

That's a lot of reds! I love that there is a niche for everyone in this hobby, so many options for cooking and collecting
