No, you are not seeing things.
The left side of a 2000/2001 Silver B will mate with the RH side of a Genesis 1000.
If you look closely you can see the paint on the front cross bar is more faded on the RH side than the left hand side.
The Legs and LH side frame parts are Silver B which provided the swing-up table mount catch on the frame leg.
The RH Side of the frame, Right leg, lower cross bars, control panel, manifold, burners flav bars and all are Genesis 1000 and the cookbox is from a 1990 Genesis 3.
The RH trim piece is from a 2004 Gold B. I would add a RH swing up table but the burners on the 1000 are lower and conflict with the RH side swing up bracket and there is no catch on the RH frame leg, so I went with the condiment tray.
I think @Steve Hoch named this a Genesis Silver 1000 B
edit: The lid is an original DD date code Silver B that I've had since new. Unrestored, just living the good life in sunny and sometimes dry N. CA. It has lived its entire life on this patio. The rest of the original Silver B is in the garage with a green lid on it for my kiddo.
And a current Pic with durawood bottom shelves.
here's some more pics
1998/2000 Genesis Silver 1000B
I thought I would share the completed combo 1000 / silver I put together over the last couple of months. Right side of the frame and cookbox is a 98 Genesis 1000 that I picked up for free this summer ( aka the red head ) Left side of frame and lid is from my 2000 Silver B with Silver B trim...

Great photos! Thank you for this
Just to confirm, when you swing the table up, what makes it lock into place? I thought it was the silver knob, but it seems that's only to lock it in place for storage now?
How does it stay up with some strength?

Parts don't seem as readily available in the UK.
I cleaned mine properly yesterday for the first time since I got it and I thought that was a good achievement

Where does it lock into place sorry?
Looking at the pictures I can't see where it locks?
Apologies if I'm blind, but does it clip into something?

I Appreciate it!
I'm planning on using this thing for a good few years, the quality seems like it will last and the more I read I am excited to use it for years to come! I enjoy things that were built with quality in mind
I have attached a rough picture of some initial measurements I think I'd need as well as how it stays in place

Ahhhh I have just looked at it again!
The bracket itself slots into that small gap and creates strength, then to put down its: lift up, slide left and lower down and lock in with silver knob?
Does that sound right haha

That's a nice one Samuel, what are your plans for it?

Clean inside and out. New Burners, Flavorizer Bars, Ignitor, Wheel Caps plus replace knobs and igniter rocker to dyed black ones. and then sell it. It was a Free Curb Alert. I already have some New Stainless Streel Grill Grates.

That's a good looking grill, you should do well with it.

Yes, it looked like the user started to clean it up but, gave up after they priced the parts needed to restore it. Grease tray looked almost new. He put it out with a cover and a free tank. I got the cover, but someone snatched up the tank. This picture is what it looked like when I got it.

Good score for sure.
