Well got this from a family memeber.. It was there Grandmothers in 1953 or 56 and they have used it every since up till last year.. they remodeled and put it outside and tarped it. well tarp took a beating and then no tarp. So we have a bit of rust on the inside on the pips and such to clean .. We started by soaking the burners and grates and pans. (they are now ) and using the amonia in the posts earlier.. There was one pot in the thermowell that looked to be solid on the bottom and had a wire rack...I just now realized that is probably for the triangle pots i have seen on here..lol.. i dont have the pots though.. Well least we are started on it.. it was run on propane before and i am in the city and have natural. i am going to order the books from todd soon....

Weatherford? Not far from my Grandmother's house in Bluff Dale. Nice looking stove, and not really that much rust considering. Looks like you have a white top? These are not that common. Welcome to the forum & best of luck with your stove. Have you decided on a name?

Yeah bluff dale is just a little ride down the road.. i like that area alot .. Yeah the chambers came alot cleaner than i thought with just a little elbow grease... We havnt came up with a name for it yet, but i can see that just might be neccessary.. Its just hard for me to believe this stove has been used for 50 years... My uncle told me last night it was installed in december 56 and they moved in jan 57. He didnt have the pans for the well. He still has the Ventahood that came with it, but of course its over his new stainless stove.
