B is for Blueatiful PIC HEAVY
« on: August 28, 2019, 06:39:05 AM »
Let me start out by giving BIG THANKS to @brewtownbeatdown for securing this and some of the finest packing I've seen before.About a month ago i was chasing an 18. Seller told me it might be sold but he was out of town. Went back and forth texting a few times before he texted me "Boss says it's gone". Fast forward to Saturday the 17th. I'm at Bethel Woods for Woodstock anninersary shows tailgating. At noon I get a text
" Well guess what, still have it :) I'm guessing the Boss wasn't home when she was supposed to be.. LOL"
It took me a minute to know what this was about, I totally forgot about it. SO I write back "The grill"
He says " I can't find the chimney starter thingy, but the grill is yours if you want it". I asked him to send a picture to confirm it's what I'm dreaming of. It is. I reach out to Brewtown and he says he's available Sunday to grab it. What a day it was thinking about it. I was even thinking about it while Santana was playing. Next day back in Bethel for last shows. And 27 hours later I get a text from Brewtown that it's secured. He's one hell of a Grillfella. He says " It's one of the nicest I've seen". Well he got it right out and I received it yesterday. I never expected for this. All I can say is WOW. There are 3 or 4 TINY flaws.
She's a 10 in my book. I spent 3 hours giving it an initial cleaning. Still need to complete triangle, legs, tweak ash pan, and put on a new pair of shoes. I still can't believe that this worked out. Woodstock vibe was in the air. "Expect the unexpected when most unexpected"  Dreams do come true.

Picture sent by seller


Picture from Brewtown


These are all from yesterday. Again, just a 3 hour cleaning. She's not restored








Weber logo can still be seen

Glad I could help out!!!  We were both on this one...for different reasons.  You wanted for your collection, and I was just wanting it to add to my “willing to trade towards a Glen Blue” stockpile, so I was happy to agent it.  This kettle had to get packed & shipped immediately, cuz like I said, “the longer it sits here, the less likely it’ll leave here[emoji23]”.   It’s that dang nice!!!  However, if it were a 22, it woulda had to stay in WI.  Looking forward to some finished resto pics in the near future.

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞

That is very nice! Throw that triangle in some evapo rust and give it some elbow grease and it will be perfect!

Sweet score, that @brewtownbeatdown guy sure is nice, and I have NEVER seen a grill packed as well as when he does it!!
