Perving the trailer park !

[dazzo]

Nice Idahawk! I'm anxious to see pics of the burner and diffuser. I have an older kettle gasser - no vents and heavy metal base. Burner is good, but the diffuser is shot.

Very nice!

Golly - knobs from a genesis? There's a threaded one for the direct/indirect arm? Or the plastic will just 'thread' on?

Looks like I'm missing the ignitor assembly , the gas control knob * the direct/indirect adjustment knob and the grease cup






Does it look like everything is here for the gas control knob to attach ?


Anyone have parts ?

[Hogsy]

Looks like you have the standard model which didn't come with the igniter or gas bottle scale

One of mine didn't come with the grease cup so I found a small cup and made it fit
Looks like everything else is there except the knobs
Here's a pic of the schematics

Did it come with the hose to connect to the gas bottle?

[Idahawk]

Yes I got the hose ,thanks Hogsy.

Wasn't there some guy on Chicago CL selling the column for this kettle a while back?

I got it and sent it to Hogsy already....

[Idahawk]

Looks like I'm going to need a valve assembly , mine is missing the stem to attach the knob, I tried some of the gasser parts off my Skyline and a few other old gas grills I have and nothing that matches up .

[Heyjude]

Any good pics of the missing parts?  Hogsy?  What does the grease cup look like? I might have an idea for that, but none of the gas parts.. AJ 

[Idahawk]

Well this is the assembly part # 25
that I have.as you can see in the diagram ^^^^ there is a stem which I don't have .

[Hogsy]

Yeah that's a bitch... That stem is definitely missing
You might have to wait til another pops up and exchange parts

[cbpeck]

This is an great project. Best of luck!

I once spotted one of the old electric kettles in a seedy part of town. I didn't know what to make of it at first but the extension cord gave it away. I never went and asked about it, and it has since disappeared.

[zavod44]

Is there any chance to see an overall picture of this grill?  Or am I gonna see every nut and bolt that put it together?

[Bman]

Brian - did you see these from the first page?

Saved it for $30.00





How do you date these?



Love the louvered lid and dual handles and the color I can't wait to get it cooking !

[zavod44]

Yea they are horrible!  I want good pics in some sunshine!  Not some surveillance pictures in a trailer park or something from the OJ chase scene!    I got better pictures of a baby gate.....How did the deal go down?  What the the guy say, how was he approached?  everything i have seen is some rotted out part with a serial number on it....COME ON!

[Idahawk]

Full spread and details promised !

[zavod44]

Thank you...you know I love pictures....and we all love the after action report!
