Red 18 with Side Table
« on: August 17, 2013, 07:30:25 PM »
Well........I have been wanting to get myself a red Weber, ever since I started seeing them here, all nice and shiny. Was looking on an online auction site awhile back and found a "outdoor grill lot" .  Checked it out and......sweet, I see a red weber in that picture. So I bid on the lot and won at $26. Sweeeeet! Took me 3 weeks to get it home, but I got it. It also came a side table, that I have never seen before, but it seems to work good and it works on my 22.5 s. She was extremely dirty......My guess is, that the previous owner used it as some kind of a staked smoker. It had a pretty definite grease ring, on the outside of the bowl, like a drum had been placed outside the bowl and a small screw holes on each side of the bowl......all I can figure it could be, just a guess.......enough already.....here it is
Best picture of it dirty

All cleaned up.......wife can't believe you can get "a dirty old grill" looking like new.......there finish is amazing





Table


Thanks
Brent

Looks great B!

Looks great Big B.....that's a beauty.  I brought one of those tables to the June meet up.  It ended up in Hank Bs truck (???).

Thanks guys......! I real like "the little grill"
PB.....lol......my kids can't wait to cook up some hotdogs on "the little grill". I just have to get a new cooking grate and we are in business.
Jeff, all I real did was wipe the wheels down.......I think this thing was stored inside, the wheels are almost perfect. No cracking or splits anywhere. I'll probably have to get some new whitewalls, just to spruce it up a bit.
G, I don't recall seeing that table....lol, was probably to busy drooling over all the sweet grills, all over Jeff's backyard.
Harbor, I have looked this table over and over, and can not find any kind of stamping on it, maybe Stu can help with some info on the table
