RRR of 93 Performer finally finished!
« on: January 25, 2017, 06:25:26 PM »
These are some before Pictures of my 1993 Performer without gas assist.









These are after pictures






This one took some time collecting parts and materials. This kettle had considerable fading on the lid. Leaves and mud in the charcoal bin and storage box. I scraped about 1/2 inch of soot and gunk out of the kettle. The dirtiest kettle I've ever worked on. Came out pretty nice!

Nice restore!  Where did you get those white rubber bot. rack end plugs. I might have to steal that idea for my N-code Red SSP restore. Hopefully mine will turn out as nice as yours.

@greenweb        Bottom end caps are made for wire shelving. The smallest they sell are a real snug fit. You can get them at any hardware store.
