Great list! Given what I just learned in Jake's new thread, it looks like we should add a blacklight to the list.

Holy cow, what a beautiful restore! I'm super interested to hear how you got that manifold so nice! Did you hand-sand that or something? Also, those grey plastic knobs - how did you get those so nice?

Woooah! Can't say enough good things about all three of these restorations! Nice job! What is that handle on the black-top? I haven't seen that before! BTW, really digging the wood choice on the black-top.

Good points, all around. Grease tray - totally forgot about that one. Manifold, valves, and control panels - nice. On the grates and flavorizer bars, I'm a fan of the RCPlaneBuyer stuff, so as long as he's around, we're good.

Hey, checking back in here. This grill actually isn't mine, I found it for sale online. I do like the color, but I'm already well over my capacity for incoming grills to work on. This one is listed for $200. I'm probably not going to be able to take this one. I'd hate for this to go to waste...

Wondering if it's smart to stock up on parts, in case they stop making them. Which are the most at risk? Burner tubes? Valves/manifold? Regulators? What prompted this is, someone is selling a propane regulator for $5. Is this worth it? Or does something generic exist that takes its place?

Thought this was a pretty cool lid design. Is this kind of a rare thing? Or fairly common?

Thanks, Bruce. One quick question on the propane model: Do you know if the small square nob unscrews, as well as the larger block unscrews from the main manifold? Or is the larger block welded to the manifold?

Thanks for the help so far, everyone! Some updates: First off, I snapped a photo of my current grill. This is the Genesis running on propane that I restored and is my daily driver. ^ Is that the port you folks are referring to? Now, for the update. I was able to find a genesis with a side...

Thanks, Dan! That sounds like the legit way to go, if I can find those parts. Just while searching outside my normal sites, I also found this video. This gentleman fitted a Coleman camp stove to a piece of metal, and put it where the shelf goes. So that's another route I might consider. I...

Sorry if this has been asked before, couldn't immediately find this using the search. I've got a Genesis 2000 Redhead, running propane, with the wood shelves on both sides. It looks very similar to this one: https://tvwbb.com/threads/my-second-weber-restoration-genesis-2000-redhead.78622/ I'd...

OMG there's a ton of cool stuff at the Weber Store in Berlin! Totally out of coincidence, we happened upon the original Weber store. Was in Berlin on business, and didn't even know this existed! They had two main sections. - First is their storefront. All sorts of cool stuff. Gadgets I haven't...

Thanks for pointing out the broken links, Jon B! I just submitted the edit - hopefully that fixes 'em! Thanks again for the investigative work!

Let's say you had to throw your tools / materials / cleaning & lubing supplies into a bag and go rescue/restore a Weber gasser. What would you toss into your bag? Details: Buddy has a Weber that we want to fix up and get working again. It's more convenient for me to drive my materials over to...

Just restored a Genesis grill. I'm excited to get grilling, but I'm actually finding it more challenging to learn than I thought! The Weber seems to cook so differently than my previous grills. Feels like I pretty much need to re-learn how to grill on this thing. What tips do you have on how...

When attaching new wood slats to the Z-Bars, how did you guys do it? Specifically, how did you get everything set up, with the wood slats straight and evenly spaced, before screwing them to the Z-bars? I almost feel embarrassed asking this question, as I'm sure I'm overlooking something easy.

Excellent job on the restore, Xavier! Rescue grills - like rescue pets - are awesome. Thanks for including a little about this little guy's history!

Haha seriously! Was it a good game? You need a readhead in your signature, my friend.
