Also, does anyone else wonder why all of their logos and stuff have the only color grills on them that they won't sell, RED!!
P.S I really do like the silver kettle, looks like a stripped down racing model

They are both definitly in Europe. I see the uncolored one has the larger wheels and the detached top handle. The other is a modern 26er. I would like one without paint, I just wonder if it would rust or do they clear coat it? What's the full story Jeff?

Are you kidding me?! Being a hot rodder family we spend at least half of the years weekends at hot rod events where we grill. I know at least a dozen old school rodders that would kill for a silver metal weber just like that.

Golly, when I got the wok sandblasted, I asked the folks if they could do a whole kettle & they said bring in a beater & we can do a test area....
They also said: Shouldn't be a problem....

If I do that, it will get handled with gloves or rags until I coat it with high temp clear coat ( to avoid finger oils)

I know it's just me, but when I see that style handle it makes me want to puke.

I like the heat shield and that they are removeable. I bet Brian could make a wood handle for them too.

I don't know but the existing wood handle I make may actually fit on that kind of handle.... I believe Hogsy put one on his grill and it seemed to fit I have one on the way there and we will know soon enough.....
