I mostly lurk here, but I want to say how sorry I am for your loss.

As I said in my Email.. I'm guessing she thinks the firebox is broken when we shipped it in two pieces. I think you might be able to do better than $1200 because it was $2200 new in 2005.. That was 12 years ago.. only $7 a month depreciation?

I have no idea what a firebox would cost because I've never sold one without a grill.  I've had fireboxes that were wedged into grills so tightly that when the customer tried to remove them they broke but never on their own without water damage.  That must be one of the very first grills we built with the CNC metal.. we called it a Supreme Plus.. but I'm amazed it still has the old 1/4" SS rod front latch.. CNC hinge but not CNC latch?  We can update that easily..    Don't worry about the chimney shaft it's 304 stainless and may have some surface discoloration but will be structurally sound.
As I said CALL ME!  I can get you everything..

Dennis,

Thanks for the detailed reply, but I missed out on this KK.  You WILL get a call from me someday discussing an order, I'm just not ready at this time.

Best Regards,

That listing came up on kamado guru. If it's in reasonable condition that's a great deal. Even if you spent another $500-$600 it's still a good deal. 

 

That's where I saw it.  I'm waiting to hear from Dennis.  It's 2 hours from me, but I'll go look at it if all the replacement parts are available.

I heard back from the seller that it is the ceramic firebox (she says it is 2 pieces) that needs to be replaced.  She was quoted $250 shipped to SoCal.  I check with Dennis to see if this is accurate.   Thanks

Thanks for the reply.  I noticed the hinge pin, also.  I have not seen the grill in person yet.

Hello,

I've been lurking here for awhile admiring all of your nice Kamados 

An older KK has come up for sale within driving distance, and I was hoping to find out more information about it.  It is being advertised as an 'OTB Supreme', which I gather is a precursor to today's 23" Ultimate model.   The unit has been in Storage and is dirty but looks to be in pretty good shape.   The ad says it needs a new firebox, but I think they mean a new charcoal basket.  I've attached some photos.

It would be a pain to get it home, but the price (asking $1200) seems right.

Any thoughts on this model?  Will I be able to source a replacement charcoal basket, if that's what is needed?  Any details on what an OTB is and what features (guru port, rotisserie bearing, etc) that it might have?   I've read that this model evolved and went through several generations before the 23" Ultimate repalced it, can anyone tell from the photos what version this is?

Thanks in advance for your help.
