Found my unicorn. Not sure if it’s worth it to restore.

I think the airflow is just a little different with the center top vent, I do like the “Slide aside“ style lid hanger.

Looks GREAT @Timothy F. Lewis

If the center vent and easy open lid works well, You may soon be looking for a next generation unicorn, a WSK.

Congrats, nice find. Just cook on it for a bit, you can always do a full restore later, if you get the itch.

My weberitis has been in remission for about a year but so life would have it, a Weber jr was available in my area. Always wanted one but was never seen in the northeast region. Guy didn’t want anything for it but gave him a Jefferson for holding for me.

Of all the grills I have ever saved, this was by far in the most pristine condition I have ever seen. Flavor bars intact. No fade on the knobs. Wheels intact. No rust/rot on the frame. No rot on the wood or rust on the z bars holding them. To top it off, I can see silver on the aluminum!

So now I’m lost. Never had a grill in such great condition. Usually I Frankenstein grills back together to get them up and running. Enjoyed the chase and rebuild. But with this one, what should I do to it? I checked out the serial number and it’s undated. Think the former owner of this kept it in his garage after several uses.

I am the proud owner of three Juniors - two are done and going on the market soon. The third will get a full restore and kept for use!

Hey Mate, I am the proud owner of a Genesis Junior (only one in Australia), I contemplated leaving it as it was due to the rarity but I ended up restoring it back to it's former glory.

It's purely just eye candy (fully functional), but I've got other cookers so happy to have it that way. This is 100% one of my favourites

Jon you are quite the artist there. I thought those were real wood!

Dang! Every time I see that grill Jon, I kick myself for selling mine. You turned that platypus into a piece of artwork.

Beautiful workmanship on that Jr. There's proof positive that they are worth restoring!

Thanks Mate, appreciate that. Definitely worth the effort in doing a resto. This one is fully sandblasted, etc
