Bought it this morning from a gentlemen who is moving to Hawaii in two weeks. He purchased a dive shop in Oahu. It is pretty clean the grates are a little rusty and should clean up nicely.

Great find! The grates on the baby q I got were a little rusty and cleaned up like new, the ones on the 200 I got were severely rusted on one side and still cleaned up pretty good and very usable

@weirleigh
How did you clean up the grates. Your help is very much appreciated. Thank you.

i'm most surprised that you can still get a vehicle in that garage. 

nice score on the Q! 
I only use kettles with lid bales.

@argentflame

the baby q just had light surface rust on it I really only had to brush it all over a couple of times then I rinsed the grate, dried it and seasoned the grate like you would a skillet in the oven.  The baby q grate is small enough to fit in the oven with no problem but if the 320 is a one piece grate that may be a problem.  You could always season on the grill though, I am sure it isn't necessary to use an oven I was doing what I have always done in the past with cast iron.

On the 200 the rust was more severe and a couple of the grates and the under side lost a bit of surface area to the rust. I brushed them really well and soaked overnight in vinegar then brushed again before I seasoned them.  I imagine with the high heat of the burner I will be seasoning them more on the grill but that isn't a problem.

You sir are an astute observer.
The vehicle in the garage has to be Miata or smaller.

I see that Homer made it home as well, a couple more kettles will take care of that space you are currently filling with the Miata

Careful Alvin, you'll let out the secret of how you "swoop in" and get those kettles so fast      ;D
Dude, relax your chicken.
