Stocking up pieces and parts for a possible back deck off the living room I caved for a vintage Weber Silver sidewinder Natural Gas grill.

 

Craigslist, well less than $100 (though I drove an hour to get it, then spent too much $$$ at IKEA), and this grill looks like it's been used 5 times in the past 25 years, and cleaned thoroughly each time. Very nice gentleman seller, we chatted for a good 1/2 hour after loading it in the car.

 

It'll be broken down to it's parts, all nuts and bolts replaced with stainless, brass gas valves pulled apart and lubed. Repainted where needed to freshen it up. A rainy day endeavor. 

 

It'll outlast me, I hope.

 

Now I just have to build the deck....

Excellent find! I was going to suggest a forum/website with resources for your restoration, but I see you’re

already there!🤣 (and have been for a long time)
