I really still cannot believe how this story unfolded... I am going to do a detailed write up for the blog, but to give you an idea it involves a random internet photo, teamwork between members, cross country cold calls and in the end meeting some really great people. The previous owner is a collector himself but of all grills, not just Webers, and he has an extremely impressive lineup of cookers!!

So here they are... someone pinch me please!

The Glen Blue was purchased NEW by the owner and used as a garden decoration for all these years! He said that it was never used but after my CSI cleaning it appears to have been used maybe once and then was quickly wiped clean and kept pristine ever since. It is not 100% flawless but it's about as darn close as you can get so I'm over the moon about it! As some of you know I had an interesting deal made with @Plant_City_Mike where the end goal was to net 2 Imperials. We figured it would prob take a year or so to accomplish this task, so to be able to find another and send it to Michael is just Icing on the cake! 8)
