Wow, found this while scanning CL last night. A church thrift store had it for sale for $35. A little rust spots, nothing some steel wool won't take off, and one chip on the lid. Grate cleaned up nice with a wire brush, 20 minutes on my gasser on high, and then hit it again with a wire brush...may have to test this out this weekend!

Now, for the more important question...any tips of mods for a 22.5" One Touch? I'm already considering making my own side charcoal baskets out of some expanded metal, instead of the Weber ones (they look too small and not enough ventilation). Has anyone ever drilled a hole in the lid and installed their own therm, rather than a remote with a potato?
