Pretty good week for acquisitions
« on: June 25, 2018, 08:38:31 AM »


Last weekend (Fathers Day), took a little 2 hour drive to pick up a couple of Webers. The lime SJ was $5, everything else was free.




Getting home and looking closely at the Genesis Jr, it was in a lot worse shape than I wanted to take on for a restoration.  Just like that, another one popped up for sale.  Took another 2 hour hour drive to secure this one. It's going to be for Mrs. Cellar2ful.




Get home Saturday afternoon and this pops up for sale on CL, 10 blocks from my house.  Hadn't even unloaded the Genesis Jr yet. I have quite a few projects to tackle now.

Not a bad week of work there.  Collecting kettles is like having a second occupation

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞

Wow! Another Grey?! Nice job, Jim.

That Red Genny will be a nice cooker.

I like how the kettles are just flowing through the background in and out of the greenery.
You DO have a lot of projects going on.
Have fun!

That first Jr is an early one. Wide slats are cool. Worth saving if you ask me. I love cooking on mine. Actually, some parts on that one look better than the "new" one. Wheels especially.

It looks like you are gonna need bigger back yard if you keep this pace up.
Congrats on all the scores.
