Imperial Sequoia

[Geno K]

Recently I acquired an Imperial Sequoia from my father in law. I was wondering if anyone had any detailed info or brochures on this model. It is pretty darn good shape. The cart needs to be tightened up a bit but otherwise it is ready for action.
Thanks, Geno

I had to google it to see what it was. Looks like what a performer is today. Pretty neat! Please post some pics of it when you get a chance.

Here a link to Webers site with some info.

There's a pretty good picture of it here if the link works.

What color is the kettle? I have an older Weber cook book that pictures one with bared kettle. Good luck.

Post some pics.

I wonder if Weber would be interested in buying it off of you?

The kettle is green with a grey circle halfway down the lid. The wood is stained black. When I figure out how to post a pic I will do so.
I do not think I could sell it. It would take a lot of cash. Does anyone know how to identify the year of this treasure?

I hope this picture link works.

Thanks Geno

The timeline I posted above says 1968

I have also seen it shown as 1971. This is what the problem is. Did the picture work.

 

[Michael Berry]

Yep, it worked. Nice grill. Bet those are herd to find in one piece.

The Weber cookbook I have that pictures one is from 1977. I guess they probably introduced it in 1968. Maybe someone knows how long they offered that particular color kettle..

That's amazing! There can't be many of those left in the world.

Saweeeeeeet! How'd you come up with that one Geno? Did you have to give the wife back? LOL!

Way cool - just way freaking cool!

Throw some steaks on that bad boy and shoot us some more pics!

It was given to us for me taking my wife!!! I think I am going to just give it a good cleaning, strengthen the cart, and cover that bad boy up.
