You've put on a lot of kms / miles this year, eh?! Well worth it, though.  :) :D

Yea, in a way... I travel down into WA state regularly so most of the time I combine trips and snag a grill while I'm already there or driving through. Let's me expand the area of search a little bit anyways! The local market is decent for newer Weber stuff but there is next to nothing in terms of vintage or anything even older than say 1985.

This trip (4 hours), and the one trip to Portland (Eternity) however were strictly for kettles :) I'd drive to Portland again for a grail but now that I'm older and wiser it would take something pretty darn special :)

So here's the final result after the complete restore!

Bottom vents, triangle and wheels finally completed. Once again thanks for all the help from the WKC on the wheels etc!
