NIB red SS Performer picked up today

[Tim M.]

Today the product won out over the price on Craiglist..picked this up from a super nice gentleman, he even offered to meet me to cut a bunch of time from my trip. I usually only chase these if the price is a no-brainer but I had to have it.

 

[S Nagle]

Super sweet! want to see it put together, very nice!

 

[Jeff Kolodziejski]

wow Tim...very impressive...did you get a good price on it?

 

[herb s]

Sweet!

 

[Tim M.]

I paid $180 for it. If I see a Performer for less than $100 I'll chase it and pay it forward to friends who tell me they are looking for one so it was out of the usual "bargain" range but I may have to put this one on the deck.

Congratulations Tim! You are really on a roll! I think this is what AJ would refer to as "karma"

. You gave the rare brown ss Performer away and then came across this one. What year is it? Please post lots of pictures. We need to document the unwrapping and assembly. I bet it has some good literature in it as well.

 

[AJ S.]

Karma good, Red SS even Better! What is the date code?
I am suprised the seller wanted so much for it.
Either way, you got a good deal..

 

[Jeff Kolodziejski]

Thats a great deal Tim. Its rare to find one, and new also? I wouldve have been all over it if it were close to me.

 

[Stu G.]

Nice find and NIB to boot...worth it.

 

[Ken Mc]

VERY nice...I would LOVE one of those deals!!lol...I am on the search for a red one like that.
I will have to settle with a redhead OTS for 20 bucks today..lol..

 

[Vincent On]

Wow!!! good fine. I would paid $250 for it, way better than newer model.

Pictures, where are the pictures?

Vincent.

 

[Greg in Utah]

Wow! Sweet find, I love mine.

 

[Mac]

Outstanding!

 

[JustinL]

Very nice find! I can't wait to see what it looks like unpacked

 

[Scott J]

NIB.......For $180?.....Wow.

 

[Craig H]

SWEET DEAL! And a NIB redhead to boot! Can't wait to see it!

 

[Tim M.]

Ok so got a chance to open it this afternoon. "N" date code, I liked the charcoal that was inside the bin. My Golden loved the vintage cardboard.

We didn't get a chance to fire it or pull the plastic off the stainless but Kroger has Flatirons on sale, going to give them a whirl tomorrow night.

Not sure I'll be able to get the tank filled?

 

[Shaun R]

Unbelievable! What a score! I bet those hardwood briquettes will be good quality. Will you be cooking the steaks over it?

 

[AJ S.]

Nice!!
Does any of the Weber literature list other colors?

 

[Stu G.]

That had to be a good feeling putting that together.

AJ-I have a Weber pamphlet from the early 90s that lists 4 Performer Touch-n-Go colors:
#824001 Red (matches Joels model)
#821001 Black
#825001 Blue
#829001 Brown

All 4 colors were also offered for the regular performer, the Mastertouch, and all One-Touch models.
