CL Score
« on: April 06, 2013, 10:53:49 PM »

Picked this up on Friday in Santa Ana.  SS Blue Performer (EZ) $30.00  Was pretty dirty but it cleaned up really nice.  The One Touch System was rusted out so I ordered a new one from Weber.   Also it's not a gas assist which I was hoping to find.  Thanks for looking.

Sweet deal!! You can add the gas assist, may go with the new regulator using disposable bottles.

If you do add gas assist, the biggest problem will be drilling into the kettle for the burner tube and 2 screws to mount it.  Weber makes the burner tube as a kit.  You will need a ignitor button, regulator and hose kit also.  There are a few other items as well...so its not so cut and dry.  I can get you a full list of what you need if you go that route!

Oh, and BTW...nice score!

My brain wasn't working right when I posted this.  I meant to say is I didn't want gas assist.  It was never a big selling point for me.  On these older ones they are always broke anyways.  Used the 0000 steel wool on it and couldn't believe the shine it brought out.  Now I'm shineing up the whole stable.
