Birth Year Kettles

[Vwbuggin64]

It is a physical impossibility for me to get a "birth year kettle". There are some who believe they are out there, but no true ones have been found (hint, I was born in 1982). From the website itself:

†: There are no true "D" code only kettles or WSMs known to exist. There are examples of 1981 "C" code Weber's that have been seen with a small "D" stamped near or on the opposite side of the "C" stamp. These examples are believed to be the actual 1982 kettles and WSMs.

I like to think that this Pat Pending 'cado is from 1969 ....

Here is my current birth year lineup. From 1978. My greens and my brown.






HOLY GRAIL: 1960s Glen Blue aka The Imperial

Sweet! I'd love to find a green 78...

I have a Black "H" code that is still in the box. As far as I know only the lid has been taken out. It's never been assembled. I would trade it for something on my list in the right condition.

Just got my birth year kettle in a trade with a fellow grillfella (I'm sure you'll hear from him as well) NOS H code! Thanks again @wessonjb

Probably time to update the site.  I posted this way back in 2013.  Here is the elusive D code.  There are no "Cs" anywhere on the vents.  The D is in an unusual position, but here is your birth year kettle.

I have this N code I would be willing to trade for anything interesting.
Only 20lbs. of Kingsford cooked in it its whole life.

Bumping this up, maybe we can connect more grillfellas with their respective birth year kettles. 
I brought home another "B"irth year kettle recently:

I have a BNIB "H" SJ if someone is looking.

Not urgent but I need an E code for me (brownie or blue would be nice) and I'd like a 2017 Euro model SJ Premium for my youngest son. Then I'd have the whole family.
