Picked it up off craigslist for $20. Cleaned it off and replaced the cooking grates, new water pan, side door and dampers. Its an old model with a wooden handle. Best $60 ever! I'm gonna practice smoking a turkey this weekend.

I had been checking for a few months every day, I didn't need one but wanted one so I wasn't rushing.  I almost got a nice newer one for like $150 but someone just beat me to it.  The guy said he was bombarded by calls and asked if he could have gotten more out of it lol.

This one I was lucky to get b/c It wasn't labeled as a WSM, I just randomly clicked some bbq smoker ad for $20 and saw it and had to jump as soon as I realized what it was.  

Replaced the dampers last night very easily and plan on smoking a turkey this weekend!  I'm gonna look into a fattie as I've never done those before either.
