I don't think the wheels were ever seasoned properly

Doode!! That's not even date stamped so I believe it was built prior to 1980 or so. That's a classic Bar B. My dad inherited my Grandad's "A" kettle. Gotta love those old kettles. Good to see her going to a good new home where she will be loved and put to good use instead of rusting in peace somewhere.
Maybe, a new meat grate, some cleaning and a little touch up paint on the rusty areas, but I'd leave that original look of the porcelain. But that's just me.
CONGRATS!!
Actually the grate looks to be in grate shape (pun intended). Just hit it with a weedburner or give it the oven cleaner/garbage bag treatment.

The top grate really isn't that bad. I just need to find an ash catcher and then I'll fire her up. There was a Weber store just a couple of miles from my house but it closed last year so I need to find a decent source. Thanks, all!

In my eyes that grate looks new!
Mine were all rusted up...cleaned them a bit,seasoned them and now I have many years of cooking pleasure!:-D
If I were you I would scrape the inside of the kettle clean,wirebrush the cooking grate,oil up the vents,get the kettle to stand proper on 3 feet,season the cooking grate and cook on it.
