I will just leave this here

Almost looks like a cross of a summit and Genesis gold. I’m staying far, far away from it. Was just curious as to if anyone had seen them.

 

[Jon Tofte]

Cody, I would stay far away as well!

Val,
That's some great detective work you did! I agree it is the Fiesta Blue Ember. The one Cody posted looks like this one with the side tables sheared (burned off?):

My winter time acquiring of grills is going to be very precise. Free - or needs to be exactly what I’m looking for. Only thing I’d really go after would have to be blue, or a Genesis 1, or 3.

Or one of these. But local to me.

I hear you Cody. I'm trying to stay focused also. There are so many variables in picking up grills - cost, free, condition, rarity, proximity, desire of a certain model, where I can hide it before my wife comes home from work, ect....

But I really enjoy seeing these photos of strange grills from yesteryear like the one you posted. I love seeing how Weber evolved and invented their signature look from grills past and also how Weber shaped the look of grills beyond.

Thanks Bruce!

NP Val. I should have added that if you use any kind of cleaner such as a grill cleaner or even Simple green, you should throughly rinse the cook box out and do a good high heat burn off before putting any food on it.

If you have a Sam’s near you, the members mark grill cleaner is probably the best bang for the buck there is.



Can get it online thru Walmart I think. Sam’s is like $15 ish I believe

If that was within an hour of me I’d probably at least go look it over.

 

[LMichaels]

Yeah I would but ain't no way IMA going out in this if it's still around next week I could be tempted
