Couldn't beleive it when I saw it!

What a great find...bet it was a "nervous couple of nights sleep".  It is good that one of you guys were able to snag that.  I wonder what colour is underneath that paint on the Kettle.

Wow congratulations

[Peaspurple]

Super sweet.

That's fabulous !!!


Hoping the paint will come off easily.....at least for the kettle as it looks to be in prime shape.....chipless?


Must have come across on a wooden ship from the States, eh what?

[JDD]

Very nice.

That one is a bit interesting. Mine has no bottom vents or side handles.
Yours clearly has vents but no leg sockets..
A shame they sanded it.
You can stick an 18 OTG in it.
Nice score!

Hey AJ, do you have more pics of yours? (btw the one you posted a while back looked like the kettle had side handles)

The kettle seems to be in great condition so I think I am going to see if I can remove the paint from it.
Not sure about the cart yet, might get it stripped and powder coated/repainted.

OK, they say the memory is they first to go.. They would be correct.. @kendoll

I've heard this stuff

http://www.wmbarr.com/citristrip/default.aspx

is good for eating paint w/o damaging the wood beneath. Kettlewise, I don't know. But, due to the durability of the factory weber coating, I'd venture to say that it'd work well w/o damage(so long as you don't forget it's on there).

I'm stuck on this part here: "He bought it as decorative furniture but his wife didn't like it."

Gee, really?

Must have been a heck of a grillfella to put such a thing in or around the house mostly as decoration.
