oh
my
god

it appears someone installed the legs improperly.... and although they couldn't figure out the leg issue, they were 'handy' enough to install a new handle where the old handle "should have been"

Can't tell if it's black or blue painted black. That poor kettle never had a chance.

Oh no...no, no.  If that's a blue, someone needs to do a rescue.

I asked him and he said it was black.  2 large tabs on each vent on the bottom.  I was hoping that other "handle" was some kind of missing accessory.

The good news is that the actual front of the kettle looks decent. It's a '77 vent. Don't see too many of those now. The crude handle can be removed and the holes riveted shut I suppose. This kettle needs some RRR and TLC. It's got high potential.
