Very nice.....way to bring it back to life.
-
Looks good. Great photos, thanks for posting.
-
That looks fricken amazing! I love it! 8)
That last photo is "just a picture I liked" quality. I love the background of the bushes, it really sets off the black of the kettle.

Very nice, I would suggest a leg cap to stop the dirty angle.....other than that beautiful....

That's a beauty! I really like the horizontal handles on those models. Most people find it strange, but I like the dirty angles. Whenever I build an oldie I make sure it has one even if I have to cut it meself! ;D
-
Looks great. Say no to dirty angles.
-
doubt you will get a cap on that worn angle 8)
kinda cool thinking how long it took to wear to there :o
-
Love it. And every one of us should wheel our restored kettles around the local botanical garden for a photo shoot like this. There's a zoo right up the street from me here in Chicago that's free. Hmmm...

Nice job on the resto! Looks great.
-
Very nice! Looks like yours has a brother down in Georgia...

Yup...you did a nice job on it. Did you paint the white walls, are get a set from Brian? I echo what Brian said about the leg cap. Those white caps on the top of the small propane lantern bottles fit nice. Harris, does yours have a cap on it? Can't tell with the leg in the grass. I wonder what color cap is correct for a grill this old?
-
Looking good! Well done. It's great to see these old grills still out there and being restored.

The faded Wood Dale I got out of Iowa did have the original hubcaps. They were metal and a faded black. They could not be saved as they basically fell apart. There was a large spider living inside on of the wheels...

Jeff, the white walls are original. Just gave the wheels a bath, used a tooth brush and "Whink" Rust Remover.

Hahahaha.

I could take mine down to the botanical gardens by the zoo and old ball park. ;)

Looks great!

Mine originally had a black end cap. It was falling apart and replaced it.
