That’s a pricey endorsement.

It has been a while since I have seen one posted up here, but they are for real. I have never seen one available locally, but if I do, I will be all over it....for the right price of course. Certainly not $300.
Weber did logo grills for several businesses on a very limited run.
I envision finding one of the Snap On grills to rehab and selling it for $500 to a automotive repair shop.

Thanks Jeff, Mystery solved. The label was gone so I couldn't register it. The lid went to a gentleman doing a restore on an old 13 bar deep box. The rest of the parts were sold as is for a another restore.

Just a Snap On logo embedded in the porcelain on the hood similar to how it was done on a Skyline.
Among my many dumb misadventures, I bought one of the grills that Snap On allowed their name to be applied to. The body looked like a Snap On tool box.
Beyond that it was a hulk of rusted junk. I wound up taking it to my organizations scrap pile - Dave Ramsey calls that a "stupid tax!" I saved the logo and a rotisserie and that's about it.
I have thought about converting a later Spirit with the stainless cabinetry into something that has that look. Just affix the right metal strips to make the doors look like tool box ones and then put a red hood and the Snap On logo on the body. I think that would be a cooler marriage of a Weber grill with Snap On.

Yah, I'd like to have it just for the blue hood with that logo.

There was newer open cabinet Genesis for sale in my area that was Snap On branded. Guy only wanted about $350 and it was listed for a couple weeks at least.

Resurrecting a years-old thread to contribute some photos of my recently completed Snap On grill project. It was not 100% complete when I took these photos. The wood is unfinished mahogany as shown but I finished it with beeswax a bit later. Also, the tank scale, bracket, and frame gauge decal are not yet installed. I still had some paint drying on the scale when I snapped the pics.

Nice work Tom!
That mahogany looks nice on there! Did you make those slats?

It’s looking for a new home. TBH - I don’t think there’s a Weber of any era out there that I would consider a “must have” as a keeper anymore. I feel complete with what I have.

I did not. Woodworking in general is my Achilles heel. I bought a planer, a router table, and a drill press with a mortising attachment last year to make a run at making my own slats and handles. I still haven’t got any further than a bunch of nicely planed 8’ cedar boards now taking up space in my shop.
