Default Weber Score!!!!!!!!!!

I scored this grill off of ebay, $30. I know it was old because of the packaging. Seller said it was purchased in the late 70's.









Vents stamped A, 1979! I believe Weber used to assemble the wooden handles then weld it on the lid afterwards. The screws appear to be on the bottom side??

Use it. Think about it if you decide to save it and sell it later trust me you won't have near enough to retire on. Cool score though

It is not a killer investment, but for 30 bucks, you do have a fine conversation piece. I would go ahead and use it, but take care of it and keep all the packaging and stuff to show people just for grins.

Good score! I would have spent 30 bucks for that.
