Absolutely perfect!
Weber should have made them that way.

Danny, it really looks fantastic. Great job! The only thing missing are new decals and you can get those from Jon Tofte.

Thanks to Josh for the black handles and starter button, Jon for the Skyline basket (and decals) and Larry for the grates

 

[LMichaels]

That is OUTSTANDING. Did you dye the knobs and the Durawood?

You're very welcome. I'm glad they could go to good use. They look excellent on there!

Absolutely stunning! My not so secret blackout is only partially done unassemblrx pieces. Racing against the onset of cold weather with another project in front. Regardless, I don’t think mine will look that striking.

What was your final treatment on the black durawood? Did you do more than the black trim restorer I believe you mentioned? It looks perfect.

This for sure makes you a flagship member of the Skyline Club!

Nope the durawood was from that grey grill i picked up in Rockford and the knobs Josh sent to me from a different model

How'd it turn black?

 

[Bruno]

That is clean!!

 

[DannyG]

How'd it turn black?

It was always black, I guess its kinda rare.

The handle I painted with black auto trim paint tho

Oh, interesting

Oh, interesting

The black knobs at igniter switch came off of this Silver I still have kickin around. It's getting pretty naked though. The cabinet doors have been given away and the table. The lid is kind of cool I think with the pinstripe and black handle but probably pretty common.

Probably the best looking version of the Silver B in my opinion.

I dont think the black handle and pinstripe lid is that common actually, I think a majority of then have grey plastics

Was the frame powder coated?

 

[DannyG]

Was the frame powder coated?

Yes. Frame and cookbox. The lid side panels were as well but they turned out bad so I sanded them and painted over them.
