Vintage Weber Kettle with wrought iron frame ?

[Old Dave]

Would anyone have any information on this kettle? How old?

Would need to make an offer and don't know the value.

Might be fun to restore!







Thanks much,

Old Dave

As much as your willing to pay
Kettle been painted
To me doesn't look like original  kettle
Trolley not original condish
But that's my pissed opinion perving through one eye
It's also upside down here in oz

 Yeah, I've always wondered about that.......
but keep forgetting to ask.....

Do the pictures (or the actual kettles, for that matter) appear upside down where you guys live, in the magical land of OZ  ?


Sorry, nothhing to add for the original post....not counted as one of the important 7 ones, I suppose.......

It's an 18" kettle......

It looks similar to the cart a couple of us on here have.  We (I) originally thought it was a Seville, but nobody's been able to find one in a Weber catalog. 

Yours is slightly different than mine, with more cart area to the left of the kettle.  Is that an 18" kettle?

They can look great when redone.  Convenient and a conversation piece.

I think it's the same kettle mentioned in this post: http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/off-topic/vintage-weber-on-rockford-files/msg20205/#msg20205

Someone suggested that maybe it was produced by the wrought iron company and Weber supplied the grills.

I have heard the set revered to as the Woodward Collection.  It had a table, chairs, lounge,and that grill cart.  I don't know if that is the name of the manufacturer or just the group or style of the funiture.  The grill should clean up nice, there is a lot of good advice here on how to do it.  Otherwise that is a rare piece, I have only seen a few around.  I bought mine a few years ago for $40, and I've seen one go for $200 on Esty.com.  That grills needs a lot of attention so I would offer low.  Good luck and post if you get it.

I would get it....

I would get it and dump that crappy spray painted kettle in it.  Its beat, but the cart is kinda cool.

I agree with Jeff.  A new colored Kettle, a fresh coat of paint for the cart...and a new butcher block....I'll take it...
