@Terri9630 I know where you might be able to find one. If this man does not have it, it don't exist. He is an East Coast US collector/reseller who refurbishes. Sold him a few truckloads of old, old stoves and lots of parts. His property has a few old barns.. PACKED with stoves and parts. All over the yard too!! Send him an email and see what he can come up with.

I can recommend him to anyone else looking to buy a refurbished parlor, cook or any other antique completely redone stove. Prices are a tad more than I could come up with, but does an A+ job of restoration. If you do not see it on his page, drop him a note with whatever you are looking for. I bet he has one in his collection he can strip down, blast, re nickle and ship to ya.

Thank you woody! Ill have to give him a holler.
 
I’d like to take this vacation again… 49 days in the mountains prospecting for gold, no phone or tv. You can see I worked really hard. ;) Sitting in a cool mountain stream, water rippling through my sluice box, a very pleasant sound. A gold pan, couple of buckets of soil and gravel… A very nice way to spend the day.

Your killin me Jim. Thats the dragon, 318 curves in 11 miles. Actually world famous to motorcyclist and sports car enthusiast. We were just up thru there over labor day weekend. We used to lead a bicycle ride of 115 miles, and the dragon was a portion of it. Normally had close to 200 riders. Our group provided comms for the ride.
 
A friend in El Paso just sent me this.

We have a dish soap dispenser built into our sink that feeds from a 1 gallon jug under the sink with a couple spare jugs in waiting. So I think we are prepped until 2022. Once again preparedness saves the day! :)

The wife and I were on a trip thru Gatlinburg TN , then Cherokee NC.

A guy in Bryson City , NC told us to go that way to get back to TN.
Tail of the Dragon.
Yep, we got tee shirts ..
We survived Tail of the Dragon .

Thought we were gonna die before we got thru it.gaah

That year ,34 motorcycle guys died running it.

Beautiful , but dangerous.
Hard on brakes too.

I'll pass on it.

Jim, I would love to cook on that stove. Growing up, our stove was half electric and half wood. Our power would go out for 3-7 days on a semi-regular basis. If we were cooked when it went out, we would just move the pans over and get the fire going (summer or winter.). Mom always made me do the biscuits, because she would burn them on one side. Had to flip them around about half way cooked.
