Brought my first red head home today

I don't think you have to worry about marring the red with the steel wool. From the looks of it, it's not too bad either. Man, that sure is a pretty red!

Great looking red!  Congrats on the find.

Another option for your wheels is Evapo-Rust.  (http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/weber-kettles-accessories/on-evaporust/)

As for the triangle, if there isn't any chrome left to shine you could always go the paint route.  Some people have painted them red or black. I recently used Rust-Oleum chrome paint. It's not as nice as the original chrome, but looks pretty good and you get to keep the original parts intact.

I don't understand how it hung around so long without being purchased.  In any case, glad it found a home with someone that cares!

Congratulations!

@stellato1976 - A lot of the older triangles have too much pitting to just be cleaned of rust.  The triangles on the older kettles are constructed of a heavier gauge of metal than later production triangles. Your triangle can easily be painted. Before you switch it out or replace it, try painting it. See how you like it. You can always switch it out if you don't like the results.  This is what they look like painted.

I've seen posting like that also. I'll search charcoal grill and scan the page for red kettles.

This is my current Craigslist search criteria:

(grill | performer) (weber | webber | charcoal | charcole)

It seems to work pretty well.
