I purchased this from a local grillfella and would like to get input on how to best restore it.  TIA

I believe they use a thin wood veneer so it may be difficult to save the original wood finish by sanding, but it could certainly be replaced with a new veneer and would look just like new again. They also generally sell matching veneer edge tape that can be stuck on the edge and trimmed with a knife so it's nice and flush. The ones I have used in the past have an iron on adhesive so it's fairly easy to work with. You could also go solid wood replacement if you wanted but more costly and more finish work would be required.

You could certainly try lightly sanding just be cautious to not go too deep

Look forward to your results

If you can determine what species of wood veneer it is, just buy a solid piece(s) of it and use the old one as a template. Maybe using the same species veneer would be best, so it will be as authentic as possible. I'd try the last suggestion first. Jmtc (just me two cents).

What year/model(s) of grill does it belong to? I believe I've seen one on a grill here.
