It's hard to tell from the pic but that might be a happy cooker- they used steel legs. The vent look like it has two tabs and the lid lip is taller than normal. Some HC's also used riveted wooden handles. Those features are common for HC's.

Also looks like non Weber(aftermarket) wheels and if those are replaced maybe he found some steel tent poles. The right leg has what ever nasty that is scraped off in a line pointing at the wheel. Could have something to do with that pressure washer and some chemicals . Is this what happens when you soak aluminum in a heavy chlorinated water? In the reflection it looks to be a pool or hot tub behind the guy. I'm just guessing.

Plus both handles are too short
