Agree with Buckie that the handle/strap kettles appear to give you the option for quick removal to use remote from the cart. I gotta ask someone at Weber about that.

Marty

As long as you're asking.......see if they came UN-finished for the customer to choose......I believe that's the way it was, but never have seen the question addressed directly................ 8)

Thanks again all! My son came home lat last night, was in, "Dad I see you got another grill, I'm digging it."
Buckie, that question never came to mind. Dang, but you may be correct that they had an option.
Marty, another question to add to your to do list.

Great piece of history.  Maybe one of the last Sequoia's made.  Great score.  Really nice piece to have, seems like the price was right too....If the owner was original then this thing is legit.  What's up with the handles, is there tape on them?

Thanks Brian. It is black duct tape... This was his repair to old handles... I will have them off at some point.
Just letting it sink in for now. He did take care of it for the most part, but did repairs from what he had in his garage.
Hence the tubing hub...
