Dan, I kind of expected you to weigh in on my latest project even if it was constructive criticism.

It was a lot of fun, and a great learning experience! I've got well over a half dozen working grills (don't tell my wife!) and the pizza oven so that project has languished.

You never finished it? That's a shame. I think you were on to something really cool.

Well, first I bought a Silver C, then a week later this one popped up.
It spent most of its life indoors and was little used. It's been my daily driver (along with the BGE and the OTP and the MM pellet grill). The G4 came along a year or so later. The early burgundy color is more pinkish in comparison and I really like the graphics on the lids of the Platinum Series, and durawood, while not much in the looks dept., is much more suitable for living outdoors. The later burgundy color seems to change color with the lighting, too, I've noticed.

I would love to find a project like this near me. Id definitely try to shave a little off the price.

This would be a quick easy flip for some cash but I'm really liking working on these older Webers.

Yeah I had one for a while and didn't care for it too much. Easy money flip though

Yeah, because many people think big and shiny = quality

I got behind reading it and hadn't noticed the direction it went.

I'm jealous! Nice find! I've been looking for a deal on one of these first generation performers. Looks clean!

Was that SSP near Onalaska?
Cody, that's the one
She wanted 175 for it, I got it for free
I'm a smooth talker, the lid is not the original, the date code on the lid doesn't match the 5 pound tank, it's a 1995.
This thing is in remarkable condition.
I think I'll flip it, or, I will trade it for some Weber goodies
