1962 Wood Dale 26” WW
« on: September 05, 2019, 12:22:55 AM »
Very stoked on this one! 1962 Weathered warrior Wood Dale 26” all there, all original!

1962 was the first year weber started making 26” grills and this is the only one I’ve ever seen surface from that year.. (interested in knowing about any others hiding out there if anyone has one) 

57 years of California sunshine has left this thing looking so weathered and awesome!

Couldn’t have done this without the help of some pals.. Stephen for the [emoji102] Sidney for doing the footwork and collecting from the seller and Matt Bahn CAnnedy for choreographing the whole thing.. thanks so much mates [emoji1316]

* sorry still new to the app not sure how to tag

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

I guess this is a 63,I'm guessing, by the placement of lid vent.

The WKC logo was modeled after a '63 26er like this one. Classic!

Very exciting!  That is quite possibly the oldest 26 any of us have seen.  Congrats on the truly epic score!
