My 1960's cleanup/restore is complete
« on: June 17, 2013, 05:16:38 PM »
I got my stickers from Brian today so I was able to complete the setup.

Special Thanks to Brian for the help with this.

First here is the thread of the first stages of the restore.
http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-kettles-accessories/my-grill-restore

Here you have it.







Stainless steel grate


The inside, I probably could have done a little better but I am happy


The undercarriage


Brian's handle


And for those who were interested in my other kettles as part of my "man cave" (http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-kettles-accessories/my-current-man-cave/) here they are together for the first time.
99 Master-Touch and mid 60's Texan?


OTP and Silver B around the corner

The color kettles are nice, but one like yours might just be my favorite.....VERY nice cleanup & restore!!!!

Very few places on that which could rust.....like the usual handle chip points and such...............that's out of the ordinary!!!!!

Thanks for restoring that stately part of American history, and for sharing the photos here.  Incredible.

Nice clean up on that grill! Brians wheel stickers and handles really make a huge difference.

The Master-Touch is one of my favorite grills that I have owned.  Weber still makes them over seas, I don't know why they don't here.  Instead we get the Performer Silver. zzzzzz  ::)
