Beautiful!
Love the way those old black 26ers  look, can't wait to see it up and cooking. They make great low and slow machines

Looks great.  Love that peel on the lid. Wheels look great too. Congrats.

Did it come with the rotisserie too?

Congratulations.  That thing is in spectacular condition.  Must have spent a lot of it's life covered or inside a garage or shed.

  Newer replacement wheels?



Those wheels were standard on the flat tops around 69-70.  My Pat Pending Chief has the same wheels.

Thanks  @Cellar2ful   I have never have seen wheels that looked that clean on an old Weber.  Obviously that kettle was taken care of and not abused.   Incredible score!

Really nice. Is that a couple of dings on the lid? I had pretty good success with a dead blow hammer and bowling ball on a brownie a few weeks ago.
