Restoration in process


The $40 Saturday score has been a great addition to our deck. Did an initial scrub down and got it working. Then sanded and stained the wood side tables. Still working on the bottoms then the handle.

How can I find out what year this one was made?

Happy grilling

    That’s an amazing deal for $40.00 to find one of these Genesis with the flip down side tables intact, shows it was well taken care of. I love the burgundy color or “dark mauve” as Weber called it in the 90’s

    It looks like a 1[998 or 99′ Weber Genesis 3000 LX LP w/ Side Burner in mauve color](https://www.google.com/search?q=Weber+Genesis+3000+LX+LP+w%2F+Side+Burner+MAUVE&client=firefox-b-1-d&sca_esv=fa8e374c3da64ae1&channel=entpr&udm=2&biw=1869&bih=919&sxsrf=AE3TifOEMa-bvVzuZAIjI4i8V1P_ZiPSww%3A1755671040381&ei=AGqlaLqAF5-KwbkPyN_wSQ&ved=0ahUKEwi6gNGl4JiPAxUfRTABHcgvPAkQ4dUDCBE&uact=5&oq=Weber+Genesis+3000+LX+LP+w%2F+Side+Burner+MAUVE&gs_lp=EgNpbWciLVdlYmVyIEdlbmVzaXMgMzAwMCBMWCBMUCB3LyBTaWRlIEJ1cm5lciBNQVVWRTIHECMYJxjJAkisIlCmBliyEHABeACQAQCYAXugAfMBqgEDMC4yuAEDyAEA-AEBmAIBoAJ-mAMAiAYBkgcDMC4xoAeqA7IHAzAuMbgHfsIHAzAuMcgHAg&sclient=img)

    to know for sure look for the serial number on the inside of the tank panel or under the control panel.

    For identification of the year/model: [TVWBB -Deciphering old Weber Gas grill serial numbers](https://tvwbb.com/threads/deciphering-old-weber-gas-grill-serial-numbers.70576/)

    Starting in 1994, Weber introduced the two-letter **AUTHORIZED** date code and started using it on gas grills and owner’s manual to indicated model year. Each letter in ***” A-U-T-H-O-R-I-Z-E-D”*** corresponded with a number 1-0 2 letter date code of **”EZ”** would indicate model year of **1998** See [How To Determine The Age Of Weber Grills & Smokers](https://www.virtualweberbullet.com/determine-age-weber-grills-smokers/) for info on Weber date code schemes for charcoal and gas grills.
