22.5 Weber Kettle - Need some help determining age
« on: July 08, 2019, 06:03:28 AM »
Hey guys,

Need some help determining age of a prospect.

Been following the age guide but the wood handles on the kettle and not on the lid is throwing me for a loop.

Looks to be in the mid 80’s to late 90’s. It is missing it’s top handle. What’s the letter code on the lid vent? That should answer your question.

Yes, it is missing the wood portion of the top handle.

Based on the lid rim edge, I would guess late 80s, early 90s.
While you’re at it, grab the 18” OTG beside it. Sweet grill! [emoji51][emoji15][emoji1]

Can’t the guy won’t budge on the price.
I think he’ll go under a hundred for both though. If you’re thinking about it.

And you got that rare Caddywampus edition! :-)
Multiple kettles and WSM's. I am not a collector, just a gatherer... and a sick bastard.

And the rare black painted ash catcher edition, or maybe replacement with something else, I can't tell.
