Re: FORD GRILL etc..
I have one of those unused in the box.I was at a diner in town for lunch one day and an old fellow looking at my car said he had something I should have.I followed him home and he pointed it out to me up on a beam in his garage.It had been given to him by the Ford tractor dealer,not the car dealer.He had never used it,cooking outside was something he and his family had worked hard to get away from.I've had it in my car a couple of times over the years,but the box is pretty fragile so I don't want it being blown around the back seat by the wind.I have no intention of selling it,I tend to keep gifts.

Re: FORD GRILL etc..
$621.50 for a used rusty kit is rather high. I have seen a NOS kit, but the owner won't sell it.

What he pays for the charcoal might be the least of his problems if his wife finds out.

Re: FORD GRILL etc..
Contrary to what has been printed, the first Ford Grill a small #10 "PICNIC KIT" was not given away "FREE" when you bought a Model "A" or "T"..In fact they were first given to Ford Dealers in 1935 for sale @ $1.00 ea. including the box of charcoal.. Later, two other larger sizes were also sold @ $2.00 & $3.00 EA..

Re: FORD GRILL etc..
Hey Fred & Mike, my name is Clyde. I'm new to the Model T's. Im the idiot that bought the grill and still looking for a box of charcoal. I have actually learned a lot on the forums here. I was aware when I bought the grill that is was made in the 30's. I'm just looking for a few things to make a display and preserve some history. Makes great conversation pieces. I have (3) 67 chevelle convertibles and they are what I really like but I was working in Milwaukee a few months ago and ran across a 1923 Ford Model T truck that really caught my eye. It's been a learning experience.

Re: FORD GRILL etc..
The charcoal grill ( maybe this one ) was for sale at Hershey for $ 50 or best offer ! It had already lasted 2 days at that price with no takers !

Re: FORD GRILL etc..
Ford, Edison, Firestone and Burroughs I believe were big into camping in the mid-late 20s (Edison died in 1931)
I say camping advisedly. Their idea of camping was a 20 to 80 person "entourage" with support staff and drivers. They would have a route, and publicity would post ahead so the news people could keep up with them. But Ford and Edison particularly seemed to revel in the travail. Ford and Edison would poke around power plants and junkyards where Henry always took some delight seeing the Chevrolet's and makes other than Ford. They styled themselves "The Four Vagabonds." Joe K

Re: FORD GRILL etc..
Welcome Clyde and don't be bothered our comments. We're the ones who,according to our wives,spent fortunes on those old smelly cars and spend our spare time loving on them.The cars that is. Have to spend it before the kids get a chance to!!--Bill

Here's some charcoal to go with it... That would make for some big buck burgers. |
