Curb Alert !!!


 
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.
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 like to check out different parts of the country and different parts of the world to see what kind of things are available and at what prices they are available.
 
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.

I like it!
 
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.
I see that listing is gone… did you get it? Or did another Chicago based member in here get it?’
