Ed, Truer words were never spoken. This current Generation wants the latest/greatest and could care less about "fixing" anything as who wants a "classic" product when you can have something shiny and new. Little do they realize their older one is made significantly better than the newer...

See post 46 in this thread. The Cook Box's are very close in dimensions. https://tvwbb.com/threads/grabbed-me-a-2000-01-genesis-gold.82423/page-3 Jeff

Either way is fine. What I do is an overnight soak in Evapo-Rust, If there is a lot of loose rust I use a brass brush and then a quick wipe down and back into the Evapo-Rust it goes for 48 hours. I also strain out my used Evapo-rust and reuse. While it is not as strong a rust cutter as new I...

Here is a test with both rust removers- Jeff

Only one way to find out :) Jeff

I love using Evapo-Rust. Set rusty items in it for two days and they come out rust free. Jeff

For those who restore Weber Grills and like to keep their parts organized these are excellent. I use the Milwaukee version but for $10 bucks this Dewalt version looks like a winner...

From what I can gather up PL7 signifies 1993 model. Jeff

You are welcome Richard. Nice to see another 700 saved. Jeff

The Cook Box on the Spirit 700 is the shallow 5 Flavorizer Bar Box. A Series B frame would probably work. Jeff

See here for my Spirit 700 restore- https://tvwbb.com/threads/weber-spirit-700.71307/ I think I removed around" 2 inches or so off the bottom of the frame. Just grab some of these and measure the difference. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000WEKMRU/?tag=tvwb-20 Jeff

Richard, How far up the legs is the rust? If only at the very bottom you can cut off a small piece and add the casters like I did with my Spirit 700 and make it like it's big Brother, the Genesis 1000. Jeff

Fantastic job and a beautiful collection as well. Jeff

Tommy Boy comes to mind... Jeff

I have been getting these from my local Home Depot. Jeff

Patrick, Keep your eyes open for Weber #96008 which is the 13 bar deep cook box. You can read about the one I found here- https://tvwbb.com/threads/a-rare-find-indeed-brand-new-in-the-box-genesis-platinum-cookbox.74946/ Jeff

Joe. That is a good deal. Last one I picked up as a like new return so keep an eye open for those as well. Jeff

Tim, You can do like I did with my Platinum 3200, just replace the quick connect with this piece and you'll be good to go. Jeff

Joanne, Beautuful job restoring your Weber. It's ready for it's next 20 years of life. Wanted to mention to you that your grill is a Platinum 1 model. The Platinum 2 version uses the beefier Summit frame and several differences like the larger btu side burner. Platinum 1: Platinum 2: Jeff

Bruce, That does look clean. I still have my new Flame in the box sitting in the cellar when my current one fails. I think I'll be gone before the Flame does :) Jeff
