Yes, someone is going to get a real nice stove... just not this one... yet. I called the guy, made the trip and picked up the stove. It was only a 3 hour drive. Unfortunately, the stove had been disassembled and stored in a unheated shed for 10 years. The pieces are all there but it doesn't look like the picture posted here. There is quite a bit of surface rust so it will have to be sandblasted. One side panel will have to be sent out to the forge for replacement. I haven't had an opportunity to look at all the pieces yet but I did see the grates and they will have to be sent to the forge as well. Hopefully, I can use what's there to make a mold. A positive is that that the chrome had just been redone prior to the stove's going into storage. It will just have to be polished.

This is definitely a project but since all the pieces are there it should come together and actually look like the picture once again. One thing for sure, I couldn't beat the price. I figure it will be a great learning opportunity. Pictures to come as the project moves forward. Lisa

Wow Lisa, great score.

And you've been here long enough to know that there are never too many pics....... LOL

Nice Lisa . Got to it before I did ! Thought I could put a Richmond stove in the Historic home I live in , in Richmond VA .

So if you ever want to part with it give me a shout . Metal work is my game . No sweat there .

Look forward to seeing the progress . Any pics on where it's going in the house yet ?

Btw there is a foundry 15 mins from me here in Richmond that does this kind of work if your looking to send the pieces to a foundry. They are called the OK foundry . They do sand molds and what not .
