John, I found a simple solution for the short center burner tube. It is simple if you have a welder anyway. I just put a little spot weld a little in front of the crimp at the end of the tube and that keeps it from sliding too far in to the left.

LOL. I think it will take a bigger surge than just a dozen or so. They are likely expecting an uptick after the discount. Now if a few other rehabbers jump in and stock up, then that is different.

I grabbed another 12.

Anyone looking for a set or six of 16 ga SS flavorizer bars and burners for Silver/Gold B and C grills. The Voltenli's are on sale. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QN6SR9Y?tag=tvwb-20

That is what is so admirable.....I hate that part. When I was rehabbing 1000's, I would convert all wood ones to durawood for flipping them.

Admirable results Josh.

Yah, these grills, especially the older ones are not that complicated. But people still can't figure them out. When I picked up a rehab Silver B early this spring, I pulled the greased tray out to transport the grill and the guy looked stunned and then said, "Oh, I didn't know that you could...

That is an interesting view point and it sure seems to explain the situation.

I wonder why that is. While it clearly helps to be in or near a larger metro area, it just seems like you have an over abundance of good used grills with lower prices as well.

They key to getting into welding is to find someone willing to mentor you a little bit at first. Getting started is the tough part. Once you can can get to a point of actually using a welder the right way, you are good. No, your welds won't look all that pretty at first, but they will do the...

They look great to me

Pretty nice paint job, if it is paint. If it is a decal, I would not want to be the one to fire it up and let it go to full temp.

Probably should be a Snap-On grill. All in all, aside from the custom paint job, it looks like a good rehab candidate. https://www.facebook.com/share/1CFMzume91/

Yah, I would have been a lot happier with a set of Z bars or even a set of 13 flavorizer bars.

Well, if we are into stocking spare parts for future projects, then just push it into the back yard until you need something off of it. OH, and the tank scale might be a keeper as well. Once you get a coupl out there in the coral in the back, they mysteriously multiply and by spring you might...

I know I had a set of #9930 grates on my Christmas list when I was 7. Santa gave me a sweater instead.

Grease tray looks iffy. Maybe it is just burned on carbon. But yah, the manifold would be worth a shot on ebay and that control panel looks pretty darn nice for an 8006. Maybe clean that up and ask for $15 or $20. Or offer them up in the for sale section here.

Yah, he was just looking for parts for his own grill and didn't want to have to deal with getting rid of the rest of it. I am guessing you could sell parts off it and make another $20 pretty easy if there are some good parts left. Grease pan, control panel, etc....

I am assuming the grill was rehabbed so if he got off with the lid, rack and tank for $20, he got a steal and if it was me, I would have either required payment in full or at least half before he left with the parts.
