Hi all! I am looking for a replacement kettle for my cart. Guessing my grill/cart is 15-20 years old. Thanks for your help...

Is that a CB Green? Any particular reason you're swapping it?

Thank you for your reply...Yes it is green and the reason is the kettle is rusted out and my husband has welded and patched it so many times he told me it is time to get a new one! Since they do not make them any longer I am trying to find a replacement kettle as my cart is still in great shape. Can any of the new kettle be adapted to fit my cart?

   You can get a dark green performer bowl from weber. Don't know how close the colors will match. A C&B green is much lighter in color.

Take a look at the date code, if it is less than 10 years old, you might get a replacement bowl under warranty.  Call Weber parts department.  They might also cut you a deal on a replacement bowl if it is older.  If you want to go new, you might check out the Performer that Crate & Barrel has currently.  Alternatively, take a look for a good used replacement Weber on Craigslist, Facebook, etc.

That looks like Hunter green and not the lighter C&B green

It is a darker green color. I am hoping to be able to purchase another kettle and hopefully my husband can just adapt it to fit the cart. Looking for suggestions on which kettle would take the least amount of modifications. Do you all think a regular one with the ash can is the best option?
