Another find in my Grandpa's shed!! I nearly fell off the ladder in excitement when I found it tucked away on the top shelf at the back of his shed. It had been sitting there for a very long time judging by the grime and dirt on it. It had been wrapped in a plastic bag that had long since perished and fallen off.
First of all I was hugely surprised to find a brown CGA as I didn't know they came in that colour but I was even more surprised when I gently cleaned off the grime from the vents to reveal it is an 'A' code (1979)! It looks like that was the first year they were produced.
It was used but has cleaned up beautifully!
Enjoy!

Thats the coolest finish on a go anywhere one seen! The rounded topedges work so well with that finish.

Completely agree with you bud. I've never even considered picking up GAs but if I found this I couldn't resist.

Amazing grill! The riveted handles, color, and short legs really set it apart.
Beautiful! What I love is Weber took the time to give it a fade!
