What Weber Do I Have?

[FastEddie]

I need help figuring out which Weber I have so I can register it on their site. I know, why should it matter. It just feels incomplete with my other Weber products listed as products I own. The issue is I can't identify any serial number stamped on the grill. It's supposed to be on the lid damper in the area of the circle between the two lower vent holes. Thought I'd ask the group here?

Here's what (I think) I know:
Red 22" Kettle
One touch
Wood handles
Bought it in the early '90s (?)

Thanks!

No date code, and the "large" version of the Weber logo says this is a Bar-B-Kettle from 1976-1978. Chris A at the Virtual Weber Bullet has this nice writeup on how to determine the age of Weber grills and WSM's. https://www.virtualweberbullet.com/determine-age-weber-grills-smokers/#charcoalnocode

Good info.
If that circle represents an "O" date code, that's for 1992.
That, and the Stylized large “weber” logo and “Pat. 3538906” on lid damper.
That would be around the correct time I bought it.

Based on this link I agree with 1992 http://weberkettleclub.com/determine-age-of-old-grill/

Ha, ha!!! I totally looked right over that "O" thinking it was just a circle, and not thinking it was a letter. Yep, totally concur, 1992.

My redhead is about 17 years older than yours (though I only acquired it about 18 months ago.)
