Aristoc-Rat

Great save, Brian! So weird to see the huge amount of porcelain loss but the lid handle strap looks virtually unscathed. That will make a killer cooker for sure! I see the original wheels have the rubber treads/plastic rims. We're those shot or are you moving those to a different 26er?

I took the wheels and I'll use them on something else...I figured they would be better used on a different project.  I'm also going to get a modern style ash pan on this one too.  The one with the clips....

I think that makes the perfect cooking mate for Grandpa.....the 2 of them would make a great shot dude. You still have the Red round-top 26er too?

Brian,  We need another family shot of all your grills, this site is sourly needing that kind of inspiration.  Young collectors need to show their wives and say "Honey, be glad I am not "that guy""   :)

Won't work in this house.  My wife will see the picture and say " Ooooooh, there is a color we don't have. Let's get one of those!"  She is responsible for my last two CL Weber purchases, although she dose not partake in the restoration part.

If you don't want your ash pan, I'll buy it. I've been looking for a twist 26r size.

a 26 ash pan is going to be REAL hard to come by.

The aristoc-rat didn't even have one.  So that's why I have to add a newer one.  I stole the one that's on it from another 26 I have.  It needed something so hot coals didn't fall out all over the yard....
