Hey there...my first post I'm a newbie on this site. My name is Ken and I'm from Canada. We love our Webers up here too!
I have a little experience restoring Webers…my 2001 Genesis Silver C (NG), which I picked up about 9 years ago for $40. At the time I bought new burners, bars, etc, and recently cleaned her up and updated with a new cookbox and lid on warranty, courtesy of the fine people at Weber.
But that restoration was a walk in the park compared to the Summit S-620 (NG) I'm now working on. What a beast!
I had a 10-year old 18' WSM that I traded for the Summit. I loved my WSM, but it was just sitting in the yard as I much prefer grilling. This Summit grill was in really rough shape. The bottom, sides and back panels were completely rusted out. Some worse than others but all needed to be replaced. Side table, Side burner, doors, lid, grease tray, pan and pan holder were the only salvageable parts. Bars are fine, burners were completely clogged but are OK, and the grates are OK. Other than that, it’s an all new rebuild!
Here's a quick pick I'll update as I go. Hope to provide some useful info on warranties, paint, parts etc!
