Here's a pic of my latest acquisition....an AU code performer.

Not coloured.
OT blades are ceased.
Not bad for $40.
A good cleaning and she'll be good.

It's a BLACK Perf Dlx   ...   HOW MUCH MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR.  It'll cook ANYTHING w/o the stress of crazing.  What a GREAT find !!!   Congrats.    Lumpy, if I sound excited for your great find, I am :)                                SJ

Id'v been on that like a hippy on a hookah. 

And you can flip it & make a buck, or if something else comes up....well..

It'll probly turn out to be your work hoarse cuz its a hell of a handy appliance. Dont use it, the first thing youll do is set something on it...then youll be hooked...FOREVER!

Sweet. Forty bucks is a bloody steal.......and no silly taco handle....beauty. Those sell up here for 150-250 all the time. You could flip it and reserve the money for something "special" Stateside.

That's a nice grill. And you will love having that little table to set things on.

So I have my doubts that I'll be able to get the sweeper assembly going without wrecking it.

But wouldn't you know, I just so happen to have the whole assembly left over from when I made my stacker mod! 

Tip of the day:  Don't throw out spare parts.

I would seriously like to add .... "Don't NEVER throw out spare parts."

Nice score, BTW.  I never saw that listed ... You're getting quick, eh?!   ;) :o ;) ;)

Lumpy  ...  an after-thought;  1st spray it with Krud Kutter, let it stand 10 minutes, then slowly gently try to move the blades again.  Try that method a couple of times (it's almost always worked for me), if not for you, then proceed to the rust-remover products (aka CLR, etc.).  Finally, give it the old pop-n-drop and replace it w/ your left-overs  ...   ;)   :)   ;D                          SJ

Tried WD40, finally got it off but the blades are all rusted at the base anyways.
