Hi All,
I was looking for a new grill to replace my old rusted out one. I was looking at 700.00 to 1000.00 for the size and quality I wanted. I found this grill in the back lot of a local second hand store for 15.00. The grates were missing and everything inside was rusted beyond repair but it seemed to have most of the parts. The firebox, lid and frame looked solid. I brought it home even though it was NG which I do not have. I found this forum when i was looking around for parts. With the help of the archives I did a complete tear down and cleaning. I ordered the parts I needed including a LP manifold and I was in business. Since the bottom wire rack was missing I decided to go with wood for the bottom shelf also. So for less than half of what I was going to pay for a new grill I've got a quality item that should last a long time. It has a set of Grill Grates on it for the pics and I also have a set of cast iron grates.
Note: I didn't find out about rcplanebuyer until i had already received a set of flavorizers from amazon. He did however provide the z bars for the shelves.

The Silver A in the background is my next project. Next time I'll remember to take before pics.
