New member here from Iowa, but your website got me away from buying a brand new Performer after seeing some of your finds.
Yesterday I got a call from my Dad and we were chit chatting. He asked what I had been up to and I explained that I had been calling turkeys for some friends, doing some fishing, etc., but at the moment I was scouring CL for an older weber performer SS and wished he still lived in Chicago because that CL had a few listed as I chuckled. His reply, "I bought one about 15yrs ago when I was in Chicago and it is in the back corner of our storage unit with a bunch of **** piled on it. Thought I would enjoy cooking on charcoal but just never really used it. It had a stainless table and auto light feature for the charcoal. Why don't you just come and take it home with ya." Well, hell yes!!!
So...I was so stoked I didn't even ask colors or anything. I'm assuming since it has been stored inside that it will be in good condition. I'm pretty sure I had dreams last night of cooking a big pile of steaks while my buddies all stood around drooling over my new cookware.
Anyways....what parts, if any, do you normally need to replace on older models??
I will be sure to post some pictures once I get it. Thank you everyone for starting me down this journey.
