As a note the inside paint was completed under the instruction of someone who builds custome smoke pits. This BBQ will not see it's first cook until May 2017.

I did, after a 1 hr bake at 650 and a second 1 hr bake I have no smoke or smell/smoke as new. Second person to ask the question. What is the issue with that?

Got the rest of the parts today and fired it up. Works great! Need to replace the igniter as it broke being put back in, rusted too bad. https://www.flickr.com/photos/144391884@N07/30235656924/in/dateposted-public https://www.flickr.com/photos/144391884@N07/30235656684/in/dateposted-public...

Great job!

I did paint the fire box. First scraped it down with a wire brush attachment on a drill, got the crud off the best I could. Uses rust oleum BBQ high heat, good up to 1200 F. Gave it two coats. The wood took some elbow grease. The fold out tray just needed a sanding but the main tray had a lot...

Ordered all my parts today, regulator, stainless steel flavorisor bars, warming basket and warming rack. Cost was $155 cdn from Weber. Tim, I will take you up on your offer, was going to order a manifold as I am suspect of it but could not prove it. The spare parts if not needed are a bonus...

Jeff, Thanks again sir, much appreciated! Off to Home Depot today to get some simple green and see what they have for replacement parts.

Thanks Jeff! Burners are out and look to be in good shape. Should the firebox be connected to the frame on the right side, the one I have is not and do not see really where it would?

Started to take it apart tonight and the screws that hold the burners in are deteriorated that bad you can barley tell they are screws. Damaged screw removal kit would not work. Getting in with a dremel was a no go, smaller blade may work. Any advice...

Should have read porcelain or stainless steal flavourizer bars. I mean I know the stainless steal will last for ever, BBQ came with the porcelain and the originals after 20 years are still usable but have holes in some.

Pictures of the grill I got. Question, plan to use for a camp, what is the difference in ceramic and stainless for moderate use? http://https://www.flickr.com/photos/144391884@N07/shares/B9Gf39 https://www.flickr.com/photos/144391884@N07/shares/WGQ56w...

Great post, scored a unit I pick up on Friday for $35 that looks to be in similar shape as yours at the start. Plan to rebuild over the winter. Going to be for a camp so may not go as large but will wait and see.

This is what makes this forum and Weber owners the bets. Hank that is the best that you took the time to get the picture and put it on the forum. That is exactly what I am talking about and the part that I thought I was missing as it states it is included on the model I have but am satisfied...

Most people who have the Weber Grill light go with two of them to get prefered lighting, with that said start with one and if not enough add a second. Personally I went with a generic grand for a 1/4 of the price which is just ok, could uses a second one.
