Can someone help with the year? I’m guessing 78ish.

Small lid tab.
Large bowl tab.
Looks like it had whitewall letters.

'77 is my guess

Edit:
I also guess I type slower.  Haha!

Ok, this is confirming what the guys said before. It's definitely prior to 78 as in 78 the Weber logo on the vent was raised.

Which was also the first year of the large lid vent tab.
