1978 Kettle

[ChuckO]

So I picked this old gal up Thursday and this morning I got her ready to cook on tomorrow. Think I'll do a beer can chicken, Enrico's BCC was amazing and got me in the mood. Anyway, all I did was use a brand new grate brush, to clean this old gal up:

Bowl nice and clean, no cancer but it's thin where they welded the leg clamps

The charcoal grate is fine, warped a bit, but fine

If I can get some oven cleaner, I'll clean the top grate with that. Scrubbed the snot of it, but it's still no beauty[/img]

My teak oil was all but dry, so the handle only got a tiny amount of love, more to come when I get some teak oil

Dead sexy, don't ch'a think?

The grate brush was brand new when I started, time for a new one already, LOL

Next to my 2014, to my surprise, the 2014 is bigger all around than the 1978

That's a nice 1978. Not even faded and still black. My model A is all faded and looks grey.
