Is anyone interested in an old gas range? I had the far fetched idea that we would spruce it up and i would use it and love it... but that was back when we bought the house. Four years later, and it is just sitting there.... and i don't think we will ever get 'round to giving it the tlc it needs.

When National Fuel was here last week for something completely unrelated, they used it as a test to see if our gas lines were bled/working (rather than our furnace!), so we know it is functional. Mostly, i think it just needs a good clean up....

I just tested it and the "visiminder" timer works.

It's a Tappan delux gas range, probably from the 50's, but i am not sure.

A google search revealed that someone is trying to sell one for as much as $275, yet someone else is trying to give one away for parts on Craigslist (some idiot even painted one red; how crazy is that?).

It is 40" wide, 29" deep (including the knobs), and 46" tall (at the tallest bit at the back).

Free to any (e:strip)per or friend/family of (e:strip)per that can come get it.

Any questions, feel free to email myself or @uncutsaniflush.

Here are the visuals:

    I don't want it. What I do want to say is that it looks nice. It looks like it would be great in those vintage photo shoots.

    I love that thing but there is now way it will fit in my apartment. I'll ask my friend Lydia, but I doubt she will want it considering she has a similar model. I really do want that.

    I want to swap my electric range for your gas range but there is a possibility that my building management might send me to jail.
