Looking for info on my vintage grill

[HarnerN89]

So all know about this kettle is my great uncle bought this in the mid to late 1960s. My dad is letting me have it. We have a few plans for it. Recently got in back into grilling and I'm definitely diving head first into grilling and smoking on my weber kettles. I was also gifted a 22" kettle from 2011 by my mom that I plan to heavily modify for more of a smoking approach.

Nice looking Avacado!  Would have to see bottom vents and leg sockets I think to date it.  You'll be surprised how nicely it will clean up.  Congrats!

can you take a better pic of the lid vent, also take the grate out of the bowl, I want to see what position the grate straps are.

Thank you! I'll get some more pictures asap

Does it have metal wheels?  My guess is 1968 (lid vent appears to be blank- pre patent pending)
