I absolutely cannot believe what happened. I absolutely cannot believe it. Bought a red one Friday then found this black one last night.

Wow, you should buy a lottery ticket.

That black one looks like a lucky survivor that was well cared for not needing much besides a cleaning. Amazing find! Troy, you and @Josh Dekubber are on your way to cornering the market on these often forgotten classics.

 

[Josh Dekubber]

That is an Amazing find!!! I'm very happy for you Troy!

I almost included exactly that in my original post!

I agree. The seller said it was restored a year ago and that all it needed was a cleaning. Clean it up and maybe replace the FBs. I'll reach out to @Josh Dekubber for new burners from his guy if needed.

Thank you, Josh!

Here are some of the Custom Jr. Burners I've picked up. They aren't perfect but they work. I've been meaning to make my own without welds but I haven't got around to it yet.

That latest find even looks like it has heavy stainless rod grates

Holy - you’ve hit the holy grail twice! Hell of finds!

Incredible! Christmas comes early! I've never even seen one come up in my area. Congrats!

Dang, that grill looks barely used for a 40 year old grill. I think someone is coming down with Weberitis.

It's a unicorn for sure! Unfortunately, it's nowhere even close to my area. I live in Richmond, TX and that grill is in the Phoenix, AZ area... actually in Sun City West, but I wasn't gonna let it get away.

Trying to figure out how to get it home without having to fetch it myself. Maybe I can find someone in the area that can hold it for me until I get the logistics worked out. The seller is very accommodating and said I can leave it for several weeks at minimum.

The red one is in Denver, but I think I have that one handled. Suggestions are welcome... except for the obvious... buy closer to home!!

So wait, neither are in your possession yet? Or remotely close to you?

Far, far away... Paid for and being held by sellers, awaiting pick up. I'm a trusting soul, no?

 

[Jon Tofte]

How far is “Far, far away…”?

 

[Mike - LA]

Yikes !

 

[Troy Goldreyer]

How far is “Far, far away…”?

I’m in Richmond, TX just west of Houston.

Red Junior is in the Denver area. (~1,000 miles)
A friend in Denver will pick it up from the seller after Thanksgiving, hold it, then bring it to me on his next trip to TX.

Black Junior is in the Phoenix area. (~1,200 miles)
I’m trying to get that sorted. Hoping I’ll get lucky and find someone from that area or that’ll be passing through in the not too distant future willing to lend a hand.

I’ll be patient. They are well worth the wait.

Here’s Red Junior for those who haven’t seen my other post. I was ecstatic when I found it last Friday night, then almost hyperventilated while waiting for the seller to confirm Black Junior was mine the following day!
