was that the one that he called orange for $15?  If so, very nice score.

I'm probably showing my ignorance here but... MBH, small lid vent tab and single lid handle screw? Is that normal?

No, as far as I know they never made MBHs with single screw handle. 

Great score Whatchu!  Awesome dark mist on this one, it goes really high on the lid.  Really nice!  ;D

Nice score!  Lets see a closeup of the lid vent. Looks like small tabs on the bowl vents too...

The handle is not original, the original one was to far gone to save. All the vents have small tabs

That's a sweet pickup. Wish I would've started my collection at 15. Be a lot further along. 

Glad you were able to grab it. Hopefully those wheels can be cleaned up. I've been looking for a grill with those for awhile.
