All,
I've been a Weber fan for years, great to meet up with you all here.
I'm in the process of cleaning up a 2005+ Silver C model. It was formerly a NG unit that my parents gave me about a year back. It's in really great shape, always covered. A little rust on the frame.
I don't have NG, but LP instead. I've been using an older (pre-2005) Silver B with 20# tanks, but I recently moved to a house with 500# of propane on site.
First step was to get that LP piped to the location of my grill on my deck:
I don't have any pictures of the Silver B, but I took all of the internals - manifold, burners, flavorizer bars (stainless), and grates (stainless) and swapped them in to the Silver C:
About $6-worth of fittings from Lowes allowed me to get the side burner hooked up in to the manifold:
Some things on my list of things to do...
I need to get a new orifice or valve for the side burner. This one is still set for NG and the flame is, obviously, outrageous when I light it. Willing to trade with anyone if they have an LP orifice (I believe main burner and side burner use the same 12,000 Btu/hr orifice), otherwise looking for recommendations for inexpensive source for new orifice.
Some other things on my to-do list:

Some other things on my to-do list:
- New wheels
- Aftermarket stainless flavorizer bars
- Aftermarket stainless grates
