Mine has the handle like Webers, I have seen some with the handle like this and I think it has a hinge in back like the Platinums with the two side tables.  With out seeing the lower part can't tell if it's a gas kettle or not as I think they did both in this style.

I have seen several configurations of HCs some like a kettle with a lid hinge like mine some not, but with no real paperwork or anything written it is a lot of guess work.

The craigslist post states that it is a charcoal.  Here's another pic.  Hope you can get a good deal on it!

Ok I stand corrected it does hinge like mine, but with a different handle configuration. If it has the internal ash pan and you can get it for a good deal go for it!

That internal ashpan has a leg socket looking mount welded to the middle of it to attach to the adjustment post. They frequently rust out.
