This is hard to watch :o


Someone posted one last year on TVWB of one riddled with bullet holes and I can't find the image. It was most disturbing..

I'm only 2 or 3 kettles away from being that creepy guy down the street with all the Webers

Brian picked this up yesterday at the mini-meetup. The entire kettle was ugly (in some of our minds) but the ashpan was truly ugly. How does this even happen?

Don't be jealous, This could be my go to grill, all I need to do is replace is all the handles, the ash pan, the legs wheels and triangle, the one touch ash cleaning system and get the bowl back in round.  Then I'll have a very rare piece of hardware.... They all seen to be"N" codes so apparently these were made for one year... Not many grills made for just one year..... as I said don't be jealous....

I suppose you're right Brian, these primer-grey gems are overlooked among collectors.  ::)

That thing is sweet! It looks sky blue especially against that background. I'd gold that add a condiment rack, tool hanger, and cook like crazy on it.
