I do understand what you are saying, Cody. I would just toss in the idea that part of saving classic Webers can mean some restoration compromises. I would personally not be above trying to do a touch up of that relatively minor damage since it is otherwise an uncommon and sharp lid. Don’t get me wrong; if I were to resell, I would be forthright - and hopefully proud - to show the repair to potential buyers.I have seen lots of grease. Never seen it that jagged. Sadly, someone else is getting it. So we will never truly know, but I’m 100% sure that lid is toast, by our standards.
That being said, it’s probably got a great grease tray and cookbox. It always seems if one part is bad, a few others are great.
This makes me happy!Ok, if I grabbed that grill it would just be for the challenge of quickly and cheaply making it brand new again and selling it. I may be able to motivate myself based on that if it's still available by tomorrow afternoon or Sunday. I'll watch it.
Very far! I found some close to me that I might go for but I didn't post them.How far away are those beauties from you?
Agreed!I need another deep cookbox redhead like I need another hole in my head but when they’re free and 7 miles from home, a guy’s gotta do what guy’s gotta do……

I like it!First time seeing a Skyline in this configuration in my neck of the woods. I don’t see any signs of a tank scale or bracket so I have a message in to the seller asking for confirmation it is natural gas. If so, I’ll probably lowball a number at them to try to pick it up on the cheap. NG’s are a hard enough sell in-season and I’ve got plenty of LP parts on hand to retrofit the fuel source on my own.

Wasn't me, we'll see if someone else pops up here with it.I see that listing is gone… did you get it? Or did another Chicago based member in here get it?’
That makes me sad…Wasn't me, we'll see if someone else pops up here with it.
I'll grab something good eventually.That makes me sad…
