Uh...  you missed a spot. Over there, on the left.  j/k. Looks great! (BTW, I have an old rusted out '71 Gremlin. You think you could fix it up good like that?)
This is the original Weber kettle. The most powerful bbq grill in the world and can blow your taste-buds clean off! So, you have to ask yourself one question: "Do you feel hungry? Well, do you punk?"

@ramsfan    If I can smoke a turkey in that 71 Gremlin I maybe willing to give it a try  :). (Thanks I'm still laughing thinking of that 71 Gremlin with a turkey in the hatchback window ;D)

@RumBar I was a bit leery myself. But was very happy with the results. Will start again in the A.M. on the ash pan. I was thinking of doing the bucket in black with a polished handle, and the vent part on a mirror finish on it to give a great look.

anyone any thoughts?
