    Heads up Minnesotans: I'm giving away a rare Weber 5000 for restore or parts

    I'm around most of the day, but I can set it out for you if you give me a time window. I have a box of parts including extra burners and some other goodies going along with it too.

    Heads up Minnesotans: I'm giving away a rare Weber 5000 for restore or parts

    Minnesota, not Michigan. Sorry dude. You're not THAT far off though... Edit: Ope, I see your FROM our great state and offering to drop it off. That's awesome.

    Frame is as solid as you could expect from a 30 yr old grill. Hardly any rust. More pictures in the for sale area here. Needs grates but has SS flavorizer bars.

    Do it! It's hitting the metal recycler in a week if no one claims it. Save it!

    Heads up Minnesotans: I'm giving away a rare Weber 5000 for restore or parts

    Yep, the "Flame Check" was bypassed, hence the empty hole. I wanted to leave it but it wasn't reliable for starting. She's rough but ready for someone to give her the love she deserves.

    Give: Minnesota area Genesis 5000 striped porcelain hood (Sears?) to restore

    Feels too special for this to end up in a landfill. Rare 1995 Genesis side burner 5000 grey hood with red stripes, I think it was a Sears limited edition. Works and in sound condition but filthy. Some parts replaced but could be brought back to original state. Wood replaced with OEM Weber...

    CL Find: VERY Clean Genesis 5000

    The igniter is the same as all of the older Genesis models, but it has a thermocouple (the Flame check button) that is mounted right there, too. That's probably what is throwing you off. I'll see what I can do about the serving tray. You might be better off buying another older genesis for...

    CL Find: VERY Clean Genesis 5000

    Nice! Good luck with the restore. Looks like it's missing the flip up shelves on both sides, but the hardware might still be there. Be sure to look for it! Does it have the matching "serving tray"? It would be painted exactly like the hood with wood handles, and it sits on the left hand side...

    Greetings from MN!

    Thanks for the welcome's, guys. Mike, it was listed in Savage, west of Prior Lake. I've been watching CL like a hawk, and I couldn't let that one get away. Although, I see a nice newer Genesis Silver C with side burner in Maplewood for $75. Now THAT is a deal on a pretty new grill!

    Greetings from MN!

    Finally signed up after lurking for a bit during some research. Thought I'd better check in here, too. I have been grilling and smoking for about 15 years and am pretty much self taught. I've got a couple of OTS's, with one built into a stainless and redwood table. I also built an Ugly Drum...

    CL Find: VERY Clean Genesis 5000

    Picked this 1995 Genesis 5000 LP up the other night, and boy was I suprised how clean it was. I've never seen this color; a soft gray with maroon pinstriping. It still has the porcelain "serving tray" painted to match the hood, glass door, and enclosed bottom. He even put new SS flav bars and...
