I didn't pick it up for him. I just sent him the listing. Just glad I could return the favor.

Where there’s a will there’s a way!
A sidewinder jumped in the back of my van this morning… thanks @Bruce for being a bad influence.

Cody, you always find the good ones. Every time I pick up a grill, I beg and prod them to jump into the bed of my truck but it never works. I always have to pick up the lazy suckers and hoist them in. I even bring along some raw hamburger and throw that up into the bed, but the grills just sit there and laugh at me.

Now that I’ve actually gotten my paws on a couple of the sidewinders, I gotta say, they are meaty. If only the floors and cabinets didn’t go to 
they’d be one hell of a grill!
they’d be one hell of a grill!It must be the weather. A free Silver C showed up in my minivan this morning. I guess we should have checked the almanac.

That looks nice! What color is that lid?It must be the weather. A free Silver C showed up in my minivan this morning. I guess we should have checked the almanac.
It's Mica Black, I think. I like those early darker side tables.
This one is going to get an LP hanger and manifold from a parts grill with a broken hinge and rusted out frame. It's going to get a quick cleanup and functional rehab for a friend in need. I have new or good used parts to replace everything inside the (straight!) firebox with SS.
The best thing about these older models is how easily they can be rehabbed and put back in service. Keeping one out of the dump and helping someone avoid a poorly made grill that doesn't cook well is a really satisfying part of this hobby.

Good looking Grill!
Although this is the first time I've seen a center burner installed upside down.

Oops
Looks like a really nice Grill though. I guess I could also mention that it's not a spirit as advertised

I had a place local to me who was willing to make a run of bottoms and backs out of stainless steel, but it would take several if us to go in on buying a quantity that would get the price down to realistic.
When I was in Florida, I had a friend and client who owned a sheet metal shop. He made me a handful - all gone now, but they made restoring these grills a lot easier and were a great selling point to get a higher price:
