It's not just a grill, it's a WEBER

I don't have a picture of it, but my stepgrandmother has a blue one touch gold that she and my grandfather bought several years ago.  I think they got it when they moved into the house she's still living in now.

That blue barbecue is special to me for several reasons.  One, for the fact it's my grandparents', but it's also the one that put me onto the idea of cooking with charcoal.  Also, it's blue - and this is very important:  My grandfather specifically wanted one of the blue ones because he was colourblind and the blue was bright and vibrant stood out to him.  I had the same reaction as my grandfather did when I saw it for the first time for the same reason.  Like grandpa, I'm colourblind too.  Actually, I really, truly do have part of my grandfather in me because colourblindness is hereditary and that's where I have it from handed down that side of the family, and the blue Weber stood out to me exactly the same way as it did for my grandfather because we both have the same skip-a-generation hereditary vision problem.  Blue kettles always remind me of my grandfather and his blue barbecue, and that link between the two of us.

I miss grandpa.

Here is my blue beast that I picked up for $50. one issue this rust. I can wire wheel it to get rid of the rust but does anyone have a High temp paint code other than the Ford color used above?
