I gave peaspurple a faded Kenmore branded 22" 3 wheeler. It had plastic bolt-on handles though.

I bought a sears branded "weber made" kettle some time ago as well.  The internal ash pan was the pay off for me on that one.

FWIW, i think i hypothesized that it was weber made, but from some HC tooling after the sale of some HC assets in the 70s/80s.  it had letter code vent for example.

What does the ash pan look like?

that's a pretty good pic of one......just sits on the charcoal grate tabs & then the grate sits in on top of that.....little holes all around the edge let the air in evenly .....

This is entirely possible / probable too.....we know they bought up all the machinery & used it for their own....
