Thank you very much Golly! 

I just scored this beauty.  It needs a decent cleaning but overall it's in awesome shape.  I do need to try and find a part or 2 but it looks like its all here for the most part.

That's a cool grill, @chefn58. Is the burner and baffle complete? Those are the hardest parts to source/fab.

The burner is complete and in good shape.  The baffle is rusted through near the opening.  It's in ok shape.  I'm looking into having one fabricated.

The only part I am missing is the direct/indirect knob which I may never find!

I'd have to check but for memory the genesis/summit knobs fit
It won't be stock but it will fit and work
You need a knob that has a D shape fitting with a long shaft or that could be the the on/off for the gas
It's been a while since I checked them out
I'm only 2 or 3 kettles away from being that creepy guy down the street with all the Webers
