Got a pic of it? Why would the legs be starting to collapse?

Brian, looks great! I'm pretty happy with my wheel caps as well. Are yours painted or actually red?

they have them on amazon here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/Weber-Sl...cement/dp/B00026CU14 </div></BLOCKQUOTE> Thanks! I just ordered one. I also bought one of the work tables from the "webercloseouts" guy on ebay. Can't wait to get either!

I like it! Looks great with the vintage wheels!

I actually picked these up at Ace Hardware a couple months ago. I asked the lady where I could find replacement hubcaps for grill wheels and she replied with a smirk "bright red ones?" I bashfuly said yes. The ones the had are the exact same size on the outside, but the inside clips were too...

Always the tinkerer, I finally decided to retrofit some red hubcaps to match my red kettle. Have others done this?

I think mid-late '90s

I don't want to sound negative, or start a bashing session, but that's a stock "corporate mission statement" answer If I ever heard one! Basically they think that Americans could care less about color options. Either that or there just using the Weber version of Henry Ford's philosophy here...

Perhaps its a blue heated up. Kind of like when a red turns plum purple when hot.

Thats a super sweet collection, Brian! Love the Smokey Joe lights. Looks like you've got an eye for the blues like I have for redheads. If one of those redheads is a "beater" they sure don't look it from the outside. The look pretty clean. Speaking of "beater" my 22.5 just got its first large...

I would say having seen the dark blue kettle featured in the 1979 edition of the "Barbecuing the Weber Covered Way" I would say that the current blue has its origins in the late 1970s. The blue looks identical on the metal bowl handled kettles like the modern ones. Give or take a "shade" like...

I have GOT TO try this.

That looks delicious! Nice job!

I really like the black leg color with the black bowl/lid. Are those porcelain coated legs on the older folding style? Or are they factory painted?

Amen to that!

The more time passes, the more I want a chocolate kettle. Nice restore!
