@bladz awesome restoration. Congrats. Do you want me to try to merge the threads with the before and after pics? If so, tag me in your response to make sure I see it.

Wow what a great find... Grill looks awesome!!!

I like the new bowl vents. What series of aluminum was used to fabricate them?

[mention]AZ2FL [/mention] 5052 on this particular one. 3003 also works and is easier to shape into a dome. Cover the part in PVC and then painters tape, then I shape them with a mallet.
