so a blurry picture of a red master touch was on CL for a good price, texted the person about it. she still had it. it was her parents. so she gave me her parents number and said she would let them know I'm gonna call. call them and set up a pick up. when I get there I'm greeted by a super sweet and kind old lady. have had the grill since they got it in the 80s.

Nice score but I think that kettle is called a One Touch Plus. The MT didn't come till 1992.

ohhhh sii. you are correct sir. same same just pre ash can. I may add an ash can, not sure if I'm gonna flip it or hold onto it for a while.
Congrats on the redhead!
Wait till you get it real hot and see the color change. I'm betting you'll keep it.

Same here. Me & my "man's brain" had high hopes, but were let down. It took a Weber to get me back into redheads again.

All I want to know is how much corn can one man eat at one time?
Not too bad at all.
