Might be worth contacting Weber and seeing if anyone there can say how it's made.

Because if it's actually porcelain enameled paint, cook on it!
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

If I remember correctly, someone here has one of these replicas ? Or a replica was photographed at the weber museum. I'll see if I can Google the picture

Original Weber Replica

Those are the same replicas found in Weber Grill Restaurants and they were used as store displays in some cases. Super cool that you got ahold of one of these! I’d cook on it! But that’s me... as lightningboldtz mentioned, yes they did “cheat” and use a modern lid vent and three modern large dual tab daisy wheels, the original only hand one lid vent and one bowl vent and both had a small welded on square tab. Congratulations!
