there's very minimal rust all the vents work wood handle is a little rough and the ash pan has seen better days.
but besides finding a beautiful pat pending, what was inside blew my mind

a corn and tater ring!! got to be kidding right? the reason I think this to be so awesome is because I only paid 5 bucks

@LiquidOcelot , NICE, I LOVE my faded that I got from @tspin818 , on the other topic, I love finding goodies inside, I have a "collection" of grilling tools, A while back I sanded all the handles smooth and gave them a coat of tung oil.. it's fun when you open the lids!...LOL

my first plan for this grill was to trade it for a logoed one from someone but now that iv really looked at it , it's kinda my favorite at the moment mostly cuz it's 16-17 years older than me. but I guess if that right logo design comes around I'll let it go

Yeah that's awesome!
I've never seen one fade like that, makes it really unique
I wonder it this one was just caught in an earlier stage of the fade then others we've seen?
Anyway really cool and looks to be in great shape too, congratulations!

Very cool. I so wish that Vintage Webers weren't so hard to come by down here in the south.

You guys are hilarious. Normally most people get all excited about someone picking up a corn & tater ring, but here everyone's just talking about a faded black :)

BTW any suggestions on a good way to clean it? or just steel wool and many a run through the dish washer
