Hi All,
I picked up on old redhead about a month ago and I'm in the process of doing my first restoration. So far it has thrown me a few hurdles but I now have it about 85% back together. I just have a few questions some thing I an not still sure on.
1. What is the original size & spacing of the wood slats? The ones on my bbq where re-done previously and am not sure that they are the factory size.
2. What type of finishes are people using on the wood handles? I am a little concerned with the heat.
3. I am reusing the original lid bolts and was wondering if I should bother using stainless flange nuts or just regular steel flange nuts? (I am having a hard finding stainless)
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
