2nd Generation Performer Restore
« on: May 02, 2022, 08:18:08 AM »
Got this 2nd Gen Performer a couple weeks ago. Much thanks to @Jules V. and @jeffrackmo for help with parts. Changed out kettle because of damage to a 1999 Performer kettle that is correct style for 2nd gen. Replaced wheels and control door that was broken. Been enjoying cooking on it!

Wow, nice work!

Love the look of the 2nd gen, to me the newer ones look plain in comparison. If
your interested I did an upgrade to the ignitor and am using the new style electronic.
Makes for a great upgrade, loving it.
