Original Post with photos replaced Thanks for all the feedback everyone! I was fine with the $100, especially since the 3 previous craigslist finds were gone by the time the seller responded. I wish I had posted here sooner about the control panel! I had previously bought one off of eBay...

Here is the decal in blank form - in case for some inconceivable reason you didn't want my grills info on your plate :D For reference, the size of the label is 6.875" x 1.125" Hi res JPG below, vector PDF attached

Haha, Yes Jon of course your use of them is perfectly acceptable. Nothing makes me happier than to see people helping out each other & keeping their stuff alive and in prime condition. Exactly the reason why I created them. I was speaking from experience on other forums (and other projects)...

I'll continue to update the photos if there is interest, but by far the most requests I got were for the art files I re-created. I was finally able to locate them and will post them below. PLEASE USE THEM RESPONSIBLY What I mean is - you have received them for free so we'd better not see them...

Hello all! So glad to se the forum is alive and kickin'. I've received several messages over time informing me that my links are all DEAD. I'm working on a way to fix that- I see that you can now add photos directly to the posts. Not sure if there is a way to edit old posts? I tried the search...

Hi everyone, Sorry I haven't updated in a while, I guess I was out using my grill :) It's prime time grilling season in AZ right now - in July not so much. I'll try to get some pics to show how the various decals and such have held up since I completed my restoration. Most of the things I...

Brian, You're control panel has one of the best condition serial decals I've seen. I've been looking for a clear photo for my 1100 restoration. Thanks for posting the pics!

Decided the grill would need to be outside if I was actually going to grill on it. The day I brought it home The Genesis in it's new home Going to need a cover More pics of the control panel because I'm so proud of it Try #2 at the serial decal, this time I colored the edges with a...

Wow, thanks so much for the kind regards everyone! As much as I wish it was perfect it's not, I just conveniently hide everything wrong in the photos :) The next one will be perfect :D:D:D

Larry, It was a while ago, but I think I did just use some grease that I had laying around. Certainly didn't buy any, but thanks for the recommendation. If it ever does start to act up I will get some of the Tri Flow for sure. I did change out the cord to a 3 prong as you had suggested, the...

Haha, I'm afraid it is just a can of Rustoleum. I did start with filler primer and spent some good time sanding it.

Thanks Dave! We remodeled our kitchen a few years back, and the catch was in exchange I got to make some minor improvements to the garage. If anyone is interested I have a thread going about it over on the Garage Journal https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?p=7341325#post7341325

Thanks everyone! More pictures coming assuming I don't blow myself up

And here it is all assembled! I don't know if I can bring myself to move it outside. Maybe my wife will let me park it in her garage space :)

Thanks! Yes depending on the level of strength you need you can supplement the toothpicks. I've used epoxy and superglue in the past, but I suspect that even with my best efforts some day I 'll be refinishing these again.
