The price was right and a good first restore.

What a teaser post! More pictures and story please. Also, welcome to the club. Still hunting my yellow. That one looks darn good to me!
Found on Craiglist moving sale and it was still there after hours of the sale going on. The owner got it free and in pristine condition years ago and let the wife and kids at it. This is how I bought it.

@anythinggrilled
Congrats!
Now, I understand you just recently joined the club. I give you that, sir.
When you throw a post up about a yellow or a rare color for that matter, you are expected to show the rest of the Webertitis afflicted group more pics! It's not fair. We need more.
We love pristine "lookers", and we love our "Cookers"! Come on, bud! More pics! Looking at that yellow in the middle of the night when you should be sleeping will have you hunting. Am I right, fella's?

Yep, more pictures please. I see a good looking SSP back there too.

Don't listen to Travis, the apparent anti-Ambassador. When he started here he had one black grill and half a bag of used charcoal.
Congrat's!!

Sorry folks! I am new and didn't know you guys wanted to see "dirty grill" pics. Honestly I didn't know these were rare as I'm new to the site. Seems like everyone is set on Redheads not Blondes. One thing for sure is that I love Weber grills.

I am seeing the yellow but not seeing the "little rough" congrats on the find
Thanks all! What's the deal with the "Gourmet"? I'm excited to work on cleaning it up. I'll post more pics shortly if y'all would like to see.

Congrats! Looking forward to cleaned up pics. I would replace the grates. At least the cooking grate.
Once the bug hits you.... there is no turning back. Check out this thread for many clean up inspiration. There are many yellow restore posts including mine. http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-kettles-accessories/before-and-after-show-off-your-restore!/msg333624/#msg333624

Out of elbow grease(and beer)for the moment. Man, that solidified charcoal at the bottom was no joke. She is coming along, I can see how this can be addicting.

Very nice! Have you gotten her warm yet? Oh, just waits till she gets all warm and shit..

Seeing that vintage photo I think I'm going to get my "Texan" back from my uncle. It's faded black at the moment. Will a good clean up take it back to it's original black state?
Sent from my iPhone using Weber Kettle Club (https://siteowners.tapatalk.com/byo/displayAndDownloadByoApp?rid=91018)
It will, with some cooking spray, but there's a lot of folks who've come to appreciate a nice fade.

It may seem that way, but it's because Weber made way more redheads than blondes, so they pop up more often. Yellows are definitely more sought after than reds, if only because they are found so infrequently.
She's coming along. (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171028/cce2078df651a52d9042b6e9a2b8e747.jpg) (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20171028/0690588fea624edcb958f573c2921b42.jpg)

Handle and legs for a later date. Gonna plan a first cook tomorrow. Can't wait for the color change.
