Default Redhead update!

Update on my '68-'70 daisy wheel 18.5" redhead:

I couldn't resist getting one of Bryan O'Neals handles! In restoring her I have given her a new charcoal grate, hinged cooking grate, legs/wheels/triangle/ash catcher kit and a cover to keep her warm, and now a sealed oak handle with weber laser etched. Man---- she is Gorgeous!



Thanks fer lookin'
:D

With screws. The handles come with aluminum discs that can be glued in to replicate the original rivet look.
