The Love of an Old Stove!

My Lovely Old Stove Top, Oh How I Love Thee....To bad can't get part to fix you anymore!  




I Love this old stove top! Check out the center. Do you know what that is?
A non stick griddle..It makes the BEST Pancakes and Grilled Cheese Sandwiches in the world!

However she is an old girl.....All her knobs  broke and to replace them you have to change out the knobs at 18.00each and the switch at 30.00 each that is a whooping $240.00 before shipping and taxes...Whoa! A new coil 5 burner stove top is about $350.00.


The poor guy at the parts house saw how much I loved that stove, we even had the original papers on it..(somewhere from 1960-1970) He was even impressed with that! So HE asked "Do you care if it has the number on the knobs?" me "No, I just want to keep my stove!"....He said I sell guitar parts...you could put a Amplifier hexagonal control knob on it...should work and you can get them at Radio Shack two in a pack for 1.99.....

Guess what?!?! They all worked but one, that one needed a new switch..which will be on order soon!



So happy that I get too keep my old girl a little while longer!

Have a safe and Happy Holiday....Sit out in the breeze and " Let Your Underwear Flop in Wind!"
