Scott isn't asleep at the wheel, lol.  I picked it up yesterday morning before I posted. Was SUPER excited because when I 1st talked to the seller Thursday night he said it was red. So I'm driving to pick up, all excited and the seller brings it out...NOT red, damn, it is burgundy and in super shape. Gonna clean it up a bit today and I'll post pics as well. NO ash can or even clips on the legs. It's an "EO" which probably started life as a MT but I'm gonna just ad an ash pan to make it a OT+. SWEET score for $40 with the chimney and my search for the elusive redhead continues.     8)   @Craig @zavod44

So here she is with a cleaned up outside. It's BURGUNDY...and REALLY clean. Just a little rim rash right by both rollers and a little bit right in front, otherwise it's in really nice shape. I DO need a ash pan or I suppose I could do the ash can mod with hose clamps...But I think I'm just gonna make her a OT+

Beautiful, that's not a master touch, they were called One Touch Plus, it's a master touch with out the ash bucket.  Either way it's very nice and you did good if your unhappy with it  Let me know maybe we could make a deal.....I like it

@zavod44   twist on pan?? because there's no clips on the legs. I have a Blue OT+ or OTP and it has clips and pan and it's older (M)   I thought they had stopped making OTP's by '95     and Brian, she is beautiful. I'm more than happy with her. For now a nice addition to my growing collection, to be cooked on. In the future...who knows.  8)

Maybe those legs didn't come with this kettle. There is what looks like a sidekick leg clip on one of the legs, but I'm not sure if table would work with the bale.

Wake up your neighbors with the smell of a Weber cooking, not a lawn mower.

That is a sweet score! You don't see the Burgundy ones come up much. I didn't think they were still doing OT+'s in 1995? Wonder if the ash can was removed at some point? At any rate that's a killer score and I think a rolled edge twist pan would look sweet on that!

Is it me or does the carpet not match the drapes? Definitely unique. Nice score.
Still need a 22” yellow

@TheDude   it's definitely the same color lid and bowl. The rising sun yesterday morning gave it great color. @Craig I was thinking the same thing, rolled edge pan would look REALLY nice under her      8)

I bought a grill not long ago that had one of those clips on the leg too.  They were for a side table?  You learn something new every day I guess.

Looks grate.  Cool grill.  Now I need to line up all my reds and see if one of them is in fact a burgundy, because that looks red to me.
