Checking the usual classifieds last night and I logged into Facebook Market Place and was getting ready to do my typical searches (Weber, Webber, Charcoal Grill, Grill, Asador...) when I glance at the first couple of listings that pop up organically and see a fire pit table listed below for $30. I know I've seen one before and I instantly know what it is, but couldn't remember what it was called. So I contacted the seller and she said she would put it by her front door for me to pick up in the morning and that I could put the money under the mat.
Picked it up today!!
Then I checked the classifieds once more and came across this 18" Lime on offer up and it was only a few more minutes down the road. So I picked it up too.
Pretty excited. Not sure what I am going to do with the Flamenco but Im thinking full restore with professional sandblasting and powder coating on the table, not sure what to do with the grill. Its in absolutely perfect condition besides the faded paint, no dents whatsoever.
What do you guys think I should do. Can I get it the porcelain enamel refinished?
Had to share!!

Wow!!! Just WOW!!! Congrats.

Wowza. 1963 Flamenco. Congratulations. First one I've seen outside Weber's 50 year timeline. I would leave the kettle just like it is. Just like collector cars, they are only original (survivors) once. What size is the kettle BTW? Look to be smaller than an 18". @Troy @Craig

That is fricken amazing

Put your phone on mute so you don't hear all the offers coming your way for that, oh except my offer !!

Congratulations! The only one I ever remember seeing was in one of those old Weber grilling newsletters. I think it was somewhere in northern Wisconsin. I often wonder how close I have been to that thing and not known it was sitting in back of someone's cottage as I drove by.
-
Congratulations! Both are grate scores but that table is awesome!
I believe that is a Smokey Joe, 14

Holy smokes! An amazing day of scores! Congrats!
So so very neat. I see the bowl of the flamenco has an ash catcher like the galley-ques. We definitely need lots more photos to perv!
I wonder if the table was also made by Woodard.

@Cellar2full
Appears to be. In the third photo, you can see it has the same ash catcher system as a Galley-Que.
@azbeeking - I sent you a PM. Take some detailed photos and PM them to me. This Flemenco needs to be featured in the Grill Gallery, ponto!

Holy schnikes! Your thread title isn’t an exaggeration! Amazing pickups! More pictures of BOTH please! Especially that flamenco!!

And yes the Flamencos had the OEM Galley ash cans. That’s a grail for sure! I’d love to find one of these some day.

That’s a cool grill. It’s the third flamenco we know of in the wild. Yes, they have the Galley Que ash catcher.

I hate to break it to you, but members with less than 1,000 posts are not eligible for a score like this. Read the fine print in the bylaws. By registering as a member you are bound by the rules. @Troy will pick it up and it will be raffled off to eligible members and the proceeds used for bandwidth and Hopslam beer, which happens to be in season right now. Keep posting and better luck next time.
Marty - an eligible member.

I remember seeing those rules I'm in LOL

I say keep it original, just a good cleaning. Too valuable to refinish in any way in my opinion but it’s your grill, do what you like. Take your time to think it through though, no hurry to do anything you might regret.

Thanks for all the replies everyone. Im pretty excited.

Thanks for the additional pics! I’m so jealous of the flamenco! Luckily I got my grail 18” lime thanks to @brewtownbeatdown, otherwise I’d be halfway to your state about now!

Awesome score!!!! Thanks for giving me the sneak preview via text message. One hell of a find for sure!!!!

I'm sure @azbeeking has received all sorts of interesting offers, but just thought I'd mention that I happen to have a spare kidney I'd consider trading.
-
@azbeeking How about asking the previous owner for some information on it? Where they got it, maybe some old photos of it in use during gatherings? Nice score!

I guess your kidney wasn’t enough! Sold. (Not to me).
