Ok! I finally got the leg out!!! Yay Me! Seems that the original thumbscrew had rusted in there solid. Previous owner drilled through, but not enough. I had to drill the hole out a bit bigger to get it all out. After that, just a bit of effort to pop it out.

This one is definitely gonna be a looker. There are too many issues with the bowl, that I'm not comfortable cooking on it, just because I think it will deteriorate even more. There is too much rust both inside & outside along with some rust through.

So, it will basically be a preservation for a display piece.

What I've done so far is given the bowl a spray of  oil and given it a good wipe down. Hopefully this will stop the rust from progressing.

What about just one last cook?  It would drive me crazy.

Hell the thing will rust if you leave it out there in the weeds!

Oh, it will get a cook. IMO, no matter what grill you get... It has to have at least one cook.
