Frame is solid and SS is clean as a whistle. Only a couple minor issues a little rim rash. The color blue is gorgeous Psyched!

Really starting to like the blue SSP. Pretty cool that yours came with the 5lb tank. Looks nice.

I have a DA code Blue SSP that is my main grill.  I love it.   Gets used at least twice a week.  I need to pull it off the line for a deep cleaning and fix up.  Since my Weberitis has flared recently, I have a few other grills that could relieve Old Blue for some R&R.

Here's some pictures of the current "before clean-up" condition. I'm always amazed and probably find most gratifying how nicely a little elbow grease and the right tools can make them clean up.

Are any tools required to install the newer Weber 65143 Ash Catcher Assy for 2015 22.5" One Touch Grills and would I have to remove the ash sweeps to install it or would the ash sweep handle slip right through the ash catcher ring without having to take it out?

The ring will slip over the ash sweep handle and install without any special tools. Just unclip the old one and clip the new one in its place.

Looks like you need a new burner tube, though.

I just installed a new one on my EE 1999 black SSP.  Took a whole 10 minutes.... Now... My EE Code Red Head will take a bit more TLC to get the tube assembly off.  Its rusted in place.   Need to brake out the grinder to take the screw heads off... :O The new style ash catcher may need some finagling too..  Good luck and  Nice find!!

Lets just say I have acquired a few Kettles.  Big and small.   Vintage and New...  Some say I have a problem.  I find the Kettle, buy the Kettle, USE the Kettle...No problem...

I was looking at the lid when I was home this morning.  The paint looks like it's metallic blue.  It's absolutely gorgeous.  My pick up truck is in the shop so it's killing me because I could have been working on it at the dock today but it's stuck at the house.  Driving me nuts.

Finally got to give her a nice cleaning.  Gas assist works with a match.

Debating buying new 8 inch wheels as the white insert is Grey and crumbling. Also needs two new casters.
