Red Performers
« on: July 17, 2018, 05:51:51 AM »
I’ve seems some red SSPs, are there other styles out there? I’d like to get my hands on a red one, been looking for a few months, but haven’t seen one for sale.  Are these rare to find, or am I just in a bad Weber area? Lol

Be patient, make some WKC connections, and you’ll eventually find one.  Until then, here’s some knowledge:

It would help to know where you’re located, either in your profile or an introductory post. 

Good luck with the hunt.

Red only came in the SSP style.  However, if you like the newer style carts, the bowls are interchangeable.  Red Performers/bowls aren’t easy to come by, especially in grate condition.  A little patience & luck is required.

This is my idea of the perfect Performer:




Took me about a year to find the donors to complete it.  Gen.2 Performer frame with red SSP kettle + Gen. 4 metal table & lid bale assembly + black Target handle.

Obviously looking for a Glen Blue (who isn’t?😂).

Looking for anything Happy Cooker, including any re-branded as Montgomery Ward.  I’ve amassed a nice collection, but I’m missing a few still.  Let me know if you can help a fella out🤞

Seeking a Black Sequoia I know I know, I'd settle for just the tabbed no leg grill

Cool.  Thanks guys, so it seems they are certainly limited, but not as bad as I thought.  I will keep an eye out, certainly one will pop up eventually.  I am in eastern NC, Morehead City to be exact.  A small little town on the coast, a couple hours northeast of Wilmington.

Its amazing how quickly one weber kettle turns into more than a dozen!  Always open to grabbing something interesting so let me know what you've got!

If you're desperate enough, just pick up a red LE  and slap it on any performer frame that you want.

Jules V. -  how did you secure the bowls?  Did you drill them ?
