It has some rust along the bottom seam.  I want to take it off the base to make sure I clean it all up.  It will be a while, we have been getting rain every day since I picked it up.

Their built like tanks - it will clean up nicely and that rust is nothing more that a bit of surface rust.
Mine was much worse and I was able to restore it to near new.
Kinda wish I didn't sell it but had too many smokers

Were you the guy that tore the grill apart, cleaned every piece, custom painted it, and made it look better than new?

See.

I saw your work and was very impressed. I think you made it better than new.  I agree that I don't have near the work you had.  My cart is in good shape, the Yoder plates need to be lightly sanded and painted. I purchased a gasket kit and new face plate decal.

Did you change your faceplate decal? How hard was it to do?

Thanks

WoW!  cant believe he sold that after all that effort

I did not change it, just polished it, but I did remove it.
All you need to do is drill out the rivets - very simple as they are aluminum so really soft.  Use a bit just a little bigger than the diameter of the rivet shaft and go slowly with light pressure.
Then you just need to re-rivet it, again simple as long as you have/get the tool.
Have fun!

Too many grills, smokers and bbqs - Made a nice profit and used it to buy my PK360
I do miss the competition cart and how easy it was to move around on my stone walkway/patio!

Glad you are happy with how it ended up.

I am sorry, I was talking about the decal on the controller panel.  Yoder sells a replacement for $5.95 and I purchased it.  The spot for the switch is not cut out.  I was wondering if you changed that out.

Sorry, nope - cleaned and it came up like new but should be a simple replacement.
Just use a sharp knife to do the cutout (use the old one as your template)

I thought the same thing, you did a FANTASTIC job on that, man it was pretty!

I always wonder when someone sells a unit like this at such a price, I just have to believe that pellet smoke was not for them!

I bought a Camp Chef SE to start.  I wanted to make sure I liked cooking with pellets before I would buy an expensive pellet grill.

Got it finished up.  Attached are the pics

Nice score!

[Conumdrum]

Nice!  That was a great deal and your refurb made it even a better deal!
