This is a grill I picked up on the side of the road on Sunday. After a bit of research I'm fairly certain it's a '98 3000 or 5000. The serial # tag was on the removable side burner so I don't think that was an add-on kit. Weber site says it's a 3000, but many other sites say it's a 5000 so any clarification from the experts here would be appreciated.
The frame is perfect as is the porcelain. I'll either replace the wood or refinish it, not sure yet. The manifold and burners are fine, but it needs flavorizer bars, grates, paint, 2 igniters, and a new regulator and hose with modern connection. Warming baskets and a rotisserie are also an option. I plan on making this one my grill in the short term and I'll sell the restored Genesis Silver B I posted here earlier today to pay for the parts. I think I got a good deal on this one, Cheers!
