Looks great!    I have a Kamado Joe  (the same thing as a BGE) that is Red.   That would probably look really sweet in that cabinet.   smile

Got the doors fabricated today, I ended up using steel angle iron and the frame sets in the cooler nicely.  Just need to weld on the hinges and send it off for paint.  Next up...wheels

Looking good. Drive by a golf cart place all the time. Some cool alum wheels on the high end models.
A mini Crager S/S with Redlines would be killer.

Finally got some post-holiday time to get the wheels on the grill stand, getting close to done!  The door frames need to be painted and I'm going to polish it up some, oh and put the Big Green Egg in it, but otherwise it's just about 'done' for now.  I know I'll think of a hundred different things to add to it once I start grilling with it  glare

That's pretty cool. My mind doesn't work like that. Great repurpose of the chest!

Well, finally done with the project, I'm really happy with the way it all came out.  I reused the original handles on the side to let me move it around easily.  Now it's time to get smoking!   drinking

Does anyone have a use for the lid from this cooler?  It is just the metal, as the plastic liner wasn't in great shape.  One side is embossed Have A Coke.  There is some rust, but it is definitely salvageable.
