Title: Weber Ranch Grill
Post by: rahn112 on August 19, 2019, 04:24:36 AM
Hi. I'm considering selling a ranch grill I have. It is in good condition and have a brand new never used grate. It did not have legs when I purchased it so I had stainless steel legs made for it. It does not have wheels. I made new handles for it. I'm guessing it is from the 80's or 90's but that is just a guess. Any idea what it's worth or what I should ask for it?

Found it. Here are the pics. I'm still working on the wood handles. they will be made out of pine. Very workable but not as nice as the ones you buy.

That's a nice looking modded Ranch.  Not having the triangle/wheels will price it below complete, original Ranch kettles.  As far as a value, you should figure out how much you're into it, and research the forum/web to see what similar units tend to go for.  Base your asking price off those two things.

Seeing that it's designed for wood handles on the lid & bowl, that dates it mid 80's to 1991.  The bowl dampers will have a date code stamped in them, so you'll be able to get an exact year for it.

I would probably post your location and take a few offers to see if your expectation is in line with what you might ask for it.  Who knows one of the offers might make you happy enough.  I wouldn't spend anymore money on it if it were me until I got the price range figured out.  It looks like you made a sizeable investment in the grill grate as it is a newer model larger opening SS. 

Pricing on the ranches are kind of all over the place depending on the location.  I think I paid $500 for mine and had to drive to the middle of no where to get it.  It was 4 or 5 years old with only minor clean up or rust issues. 

Other places they turn up often and can go for less.  That is a mothership though so that might help you to some extent because no one makes them anymore.

Best of luck and please don't offer it cheap within driving distance of north Missouri.  My wife would probably cook me on it.
