Would you say this is one and if so what do you think it is worth?

Looks like one to me....worth would depend on how thick the steel is, what shape its in on inspection, and if its 16" or 20". Looks like the 16" NB OK Joe I had. Probably $50-100 depending on those variables around here. They do need some mods which are well documented here to make them run evenly.
Looks like a NB Black Diamond. Maybe $60-$100 depending on what the interior looks like.

What they said. If the lids have some heft to them, I'd go to $100. If not, $50.

Pipx are fine. It LOOKS like a heavy duty model, but it's hard to tell.

thanks. looking at the welds I thought it was heavy gauge as well, but hard to tell. Plus the guy said its really heavy.

NB built some really decent offsets like that. My first one, a Silver Smoker, is probably still alive and kicking. The Black Diamond and the Hondo are other examples. Good luck!

It looks a lot like the one I had. You can search my prior posts and see some pics. Likely 1/8" steel which isn't too light but not the old 3/8" or 1/4" ones.
I had some fun with it but after a year sold it and moved to a UDS. If it's the 16" like I had, the space is limited when you start to use it. The firebox isn't really big enough for sticks. I made a charcoal basket for it. At it's best when tuned I could get decent results and burn times.

Looks to be the heavier version, $100 is fair. Be ready to put some work into if you want it to perform and to last.

Thanks everyone.
I have 2 UDS's and love them. I wanted an offset just for fun. I have read a lot of post about the mods to it about 2 years ago. I have been looking for one and see them every so often, but this one is a bit closer and only $60 so Im really thinking about it.
Thanks again!

Congrats. You will have fun with it!
Awesome! The NBBD was my first offset - I learned a lot on that thing and had a great time doing it.

Looks like the NBBD I picked up for $40 (after missing one that was 10 minutes away for $30.)
I've done one cook on mine so far and plan to do more. I'm planning on using it as a stick burner if I can get temperature control down w/out having to tend it every 20 minutes.
Edit: looks like one listed locally for $35: http://chicago.craigslist.org/nwc/for/3965991777.html

Great looking score! And yeah Scion's are great for hauling things. I fit the performers I have in my Scion tC. You should of seen the people's faces that sold them when I was able to fit it in my car.
