Taking a trip to the west side of state for a short vacation. I decided to check for some kettles as my wife was driving. And I could not believe what I found.

Sent a text and it was still available. Had to make a small detour.

Can't wait for my vacation to be over now so I can get home and clean her up. I will post more pictures later. I have to get back to family time.

Oh my goodness! Yes......you really have no excuse not to bbq along the way. Stop in and grab a couple grates plus some Kingsford and you are set. Just goes to show it never hurts to check craigslist. Safe travels man.

Very nice pickup. I have had an eye that for 3 weeks and almost made the 10 Hour round trip drive to get it. Congratulations on that one.
-
Congrats on the pickup. Probably the closest I will ever get to one, since I live in Ohio and you in Michigan.

What they really want to know is what routes are you taking and where will you be parking your SUV unattended for the night?
Times and locations would be a plus.
Ha, ha.. Just joking. Congrats.

I can't believe he actually still had that. I've been thinking about making the 8 plus hour round trip for 3 weeks for that. Just couldn't justify it in my mind. Great score.

Hold Crap!!! Nice Pick up!!

DAYUM!!! Congratulations!!!

Congrats! I'm glad someone here got it. The ad was shared with me and I got right on it and even had an agent lined up. You must have just beat me.

I felt a little bad for only giving $5. It's really not in bad shape for its age. She will clean up nice.

Congrats on the find. Looks like we're all going to have to get the wives to do the driving on road trips so we can search for kettles along the way.

WOW...just WOW...one helluva find....hoeleecrap....CONGRATS!!!!!

What kind of ash pan is that? Does it have the hooks? From the pics, it appears to be straight edged with the cutouts...just curious! Congrats on the amazing score!
-
Looks like the Imperials are coming out of hiding. Congrats on your awesome find.
-
Just slightly "North of Free..." ;)
regardless...
Nicely done! Congrats!
-
Wow!!! Congrats!!
(This thread needs more Imperial cook pics 8) )
-
Congrats man.
-
Congratulations! You can not get finds like that on a cruise!
-
Thats friggin awesome!
Lol
Plz give a play by play story from the time you saw the listing, screamed like a little kid on Christmas, and explaining to your wife that you were taking a detour. What was her initial reaction?
-
Definitely a vacation to remember. Great score. Congrats.

Congrats sir!

Lucky for me my wife is understanding about my Weber addiction. I told her this thing is early sixties and very rare and we are going to get it. I'm a lucky guy.

You knew where this was for 3 weeks and did not act? You could not justify a eight hour drive? I believe the Kettle has wound up where it belongs.

A little history about this Grill from previous owner. Just think this kettle almost became a flower pot. [emoji46]

I thought the same thing when I first read this. But what I really can't believe it's that it wasn't posted here. Well done all!! Just my opinion.

Once in a lifetime score! Very nice, there is one 10 minutes away from me that is now on ebay for an ungodly amount of $. That is my (along with everyone else) holy grail! Can't wait to see pictures of it cleaned up!

I actually don't have it right now. @lightningboldtz picked it up and took it to the Chicago meet up. When I take some new pics I will differently post them.
