I will just leave this here


 
Well there are some unique features for the top of the line LX. Instead of a separate sear burner all of the burners have high+sear. The lid is a bit taller only on LX model. The SS is higher quality. The knobs are back lit. The ignition system is an infinity ignition system built in separate for each burner. The left side table folds down. I don't think I'm forgetting anything but I might be. They work very well for me. That said I can sear a perfect Steak on pretty much any Weber.
Cool, thanks for the explanation. None of those things are really apparent just from looking at pictures of them.
 
For any of you wheel rehabbers, I just had a light bulb moment. I’m doing a batch of wheels today, and I hate trying to sand down the inserts, be it daisy or white walls. White walls are especially hard to hang on to and are quite fragile.

I sacrificed two bad wheels, and ground the material that is next to the white walls/daisy insert. Pop it in, and it’s super easy to sand and get some of that real rough texture out of them. IMG_9818.jpeg

I’m thinking I may start a random Cody’s Corner thread where I post all the random 💩 I do… lol

But my wife just text me that she thinks my son needs to go to urgent care with a fever. So rehabbing is getting paused.
 
Just picked up this (EZ) 1998 Green Genesis LX for Free. Not perfect but pretty good condition and close by. Came with a full propane tank with old school quick release so probably not used for a while. Lid is perfect and parts look to be good. Drip pan and grease tray. Burners are original style and flav bars and grates aren't bad and maybe the original ones. The control panel looks perfect at first glance but with lightning just at the right angle you can very faintly see dots uniform across the surface. So not for a show piece grill but it's definitely usable. Z-metal has no rust. Frame looks good.Screenshot_20250727_113908_Photos~3.jpg
 
Will this be a flip? Or a full on JD style frame off nut to bolt restoration?
Tough to say. I have several similar to this one. I plan on doing a couple more high level 1000s and Jr's for myself. I already have my forever green LX so most likely this one will be sold or donated after I finish my grills for myself. I'll definitely make it as nice as I can regardless of what I do with it.
 
I know that Napoleon has always kind of mimic'ed Weber with their gas grills, but I didn't know they also put out a line of Q style grills that are the same basic design as Weber Q's. They even use "Q" in the name.
