The legs need some help, and it's the Chargers, but $5.

Nice find for five bucks.  You can get a brand new leg kit, and fortunately it looks like the grill will clean up like new.

   Nice score, if you have evapo-rust just put the legs in a container and let it work it's magic.

Sweet, I'm still a chargers fan and this is really cool! Did you get it cleaned up?

Here is the cleaned up lid. The legs were rusted and I have not been able to remove the wing nuts as they have rusted. Lid has a small dent.

Grate score for $5!  Get some penetrating oil to put on the nuts.

Might be cheaper to find a cheap fairly new donor bottom and grates than buy new grates and legs.
