New pickup!
« on: June 08, 2015, 07:03:33 PM »
Pick it up Wednesday. Not sure all the details of her. Most any 22"er is worth $40, but I spy wood handles.  :D

Still need a 22” yellow

Is there a letter of letters stamped on the lid vent?

It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

Looks like a nice black 3-wheeler 22"

It's definitely been well taken care of based on condition of the handles. And it still has the front leg cap on there... Going to have to flip that triangle though 8) nice pickup!

Always be proud of a Weber kettle rescue, no matter what. 

That looks like a nice one, and will be a great cooker.  I love my 3-wheeler for low 'n' slow.

The handles appear to be in very good condition.  Here is what I recommend for them if you want them to last:

Remove, then rub them with 0000 steel wool to get rid of the grime / grease. 
Then apply a coating of tung oil, then finish with a couple three coats of spar varnish.

Handles are in great shape. Couldn't hurt to protect them though. Thanks for the tip. I see what guys mean by "three wheel" now. Was confused by the fact they only have 2 wheels. Haha

That's an economy Kettle...due to the triangle having 2 big gaps as opposed to 6. Got one myself....my first 3 wheeler....drove 2 hours each way to get it....splendid low and slow cooker that seals up perfect.
