Found this on a curb for free, is it worth cleaning up?!
Flavor grates are pretty destroyed but everything else looks alright minus dirt and debris that need cleaning! Don’t know a ton about these so any help or advice is greatly appreciated.

Super easy to find parts for online.
Give it a scrub and light ‘er up!

It’d be ridiculous to leave that thing for the dump

Just finished restoring two of these that I picked up for free. Took them all apart, cleaned, scrubbed inside and out, painted the outside of the cookbox and the end panels of the lid. Replaced all the nuts and bolts. New igniter, flavorizer bars, grill grates and burners. Probably spent $100 on each grill. Got a tank back, Much better than the cheap crap you get at Home Depot. Get all of your information on the virtual Weber bulletin board.
It’d be hard to hide another grill from my wife but it would definitely be coming home with the plan to spend some money and time.

Grab it!
After you clean it up. Go to the store and look at a new Weber. Note how the new ones feel like you can punch right through the lid. While the one you have is damn near bullet proof.
That is a great grill and parts will be available until the end of time.
