Im in the doghouse again....but its worth it.  I just acquired this 26" Patent Pending BAR-B-QUE Kettle today.  Seller said he got this from his father and that it has seen a lot of use over the years but it seems to have been well cared for and included a newer cooking and charcoal grate.  Should clean up nicely.

you are such a bad boy Stu...maybe the significant other will give you a good paddlin'!

Nice find!

[javahog2002]

Very cool where did you find it ??

[Craig]

That is a super score, G! Looks very clean! Very jealous right now. Are those metal wheels?

[pbe gummi bear]

Nice score! Has it been painted?

[glrasmussen]

Great score! Look forward to the clean-up pictures.

That's a very nice find G! Dare I ask how much?

[landgraftj]

Stu you always find the nice colors and rare ones...great job!

[MartyG]

Great rescue. What's the date code? Can't wait to see the restored pics.

(Pay no attention to the number of my posts next to this one - although Hell Fire Grill may have been involved...)

thanks all....this was on a local CL listing.
@ Jeff-

@ Craig-They are metal wheels

@pbe-I thought it was painted at first but after a closer inspection, I dont think it is.  It appears that some of the enamel is worn away in areas causing the dull black look.

@ Duke-$40

There are also holes in the leg sockets where a thumbscrew would typically be but they look strange.  Im thinking this was a mod by the previous owner to cure wobbly legs.

[Duke]

Thanks Stu, $40 was my guess. You stole it! There isn't even ny rust around the top handle.
