I’d pay shipping plus $25 for the side burner if you’re in a semi-donation mood?

I'll bet it's the original lid. It seems those older Genesis 1-5 lids have a lot more "orange peel" in the finish than the later lids. There's one for sale by me now with a maroon lid that looks the same way.

That lid is definitely a first generation Genesis lid. I can easily tell the difference in the porcelain enamel on the first generation. In person up close.

That's exactly right but they also seem to hold up the best over the years. You can also find tiny factory flaws in the porcelain enamel on the first generation. Very tiny but if you go over them with a fine tooth comb you can see some tiny spots that you won't find in second generation perfect lid

I have no doubt that those early lids had better quality finishes on them compared to the later ones.

It's pretty easy to see in the pictures as well.

Edgerton, WI. I really like these and it doesn't get any better than free.

Edgerton is not a bad drive. IIRC you're in the NW burbs Edgerton is about 30 min drive for me, so maybe what? 90 min for you?

I only say that as I was under the impression the first gen’s only came in brown, black and red.

Like my Friend Greg's Restoration he did on this one in 2016. He used all new parts every nut bolt etc.. also some parts custom made so I'm not sure if it was a custom part or not. I think it was a custom made part.

I messaged this guy, still no reply. I have a free one arranged to pick up (from a guy I sold a spirit to a couple weeks ago) in Edgerton. I should’ve just gone at 5am and saw if it was still there. He’s not returned the message or removed the listing.

I also think the lighter hole is off line.

@Josh Dekubber - can you tell me what the P/N on your sideburner is? I think it is a 7810 - but want to be sure.
Steve Hoch

Probably, I think it would be a miracle if it fits and lines up correctly.
Steve Hoch

Yes, about 90 minutes. That's too far of a drive to risk on picking up a freebie. I'm happy to let Cody grab that one if he can.

This 3000 doesn't look too bad. I already have more redheads than I can count but sad to watch this one not get picked up over the last couple weeks knowing it's getting scrapped.
