Genesis Silver A??
« on: June 21, 2015, 02:50:44 PM »
Just ran across this on my local CL. Guy just has it listed as "Weber Natural Gas Grill." It looks like a Silver A to me. I'm thinking of picking it up if the price is right.

If anyone runs across a good deal in Oklahoma please let me know.

It is a silver A,  do you have natural gas hook up?  I would imagine the price of 50 to $70 is decent depending on condition.
I am not a collector, but I do have a small collection.

Thank you. Yes I have a NG hookup. When we built the house I had one run.

He wants $25. I'm going to go look at it tomorrow. He says all it needs are new flavorizer bars but doesn't have any pics of the interior

Nice price if the rest of it is in good shape.   If you do need flavorizer bars, I'd look at the ones made by RCPlanebuyer on Ebay (or I can give you his direct contact info).   His are heavier gauge stainless steel than Weber's and cheaper too !    Definitely worth the investment.

BTW, while it's a good price, think twice as it's only a 2 burner and doesn't have a side burner.   Will that fit your needs ?   Older Genny's B's and C's usually aren't hard to find on CL, especially NG ones.

$25?!? Buy it. Even if it's in decent shape. That is a crazy good price, and a Genesis from that era will last forever.

A two burner should be fine. Honestly I think the only time it will get used is when my wife wants to grill something but I'm not around. She doesn't like to "mess with charcoal" so a cheap gasser to replace our dead one is probably the best option.

That being the case, this one should be in your garage already    ;D ;D.

I grabbed and rehabbed a Silver A for one of my Aunt's.   She grills a couple of times per month and it's only her at the house.   The 2 burner is perfect for her needs.
