My "New" Gibraltar LCC, Need Inside Pics

So I just bought a Gibraltar LCC, and the guy I bought it from had already dissassembled it to get it up his stairs, so I have no clue how some of it goes back together. So I was hoping if somebody has one they could take pictures of the inside of theirs I would really apperciate it. and also it didn't come with an ash pan so if anybody knows where I could get one that would be great..............

It's a little rusty so I'm going to sand it down and repaint it and put in new firebrick, I noticed that in the inside it's a little rusty too and was wondering how I should address that. sand it down?

Thanks for the help

Give each link a try..... I bought parts for my Gibraltar DDI at one or the other.
Sand blasting and painting the parts is the best way to go.
Good luck with the rebuild.

so sandblast and paint the inside too?

the metal tab that holds the banking bar in the front (is that what it's called) fell off and I don't have a welder so could I get away with jb weld? and are the firebrick just held in by pressure or is there some type of adhesive holding them in? I'm going to go take pics and so you what I've got to work with.

Yes... I think the paint I used on the inside was VHT, and good for up to 2,000*F.
You can buy the paint at an autoparts store.
For the outside of the stove I used 1,200*F barbaque paint by Rust-oleum.

I think welding is the way to go with the tab for the banking bar / "Banking Plate".
jb weld may not hold up with the very high temp.....
You could drill & tap and fasten with machine screws.

here are the pics, I know it's beat up but I think/hope its redeemable. ...... I think that one of the banker bars was the wrong size and they tried to bend it to make it fit

couldn't fit this in on the last post

You may not need the tab that fell off because the loading door frame will hold the banking plate from falling out of the stove. Once the stove is full of coal, the coal will hold the banking plate from falling onto the grates.

Both of your banking plates are bent and one is too long for that stove.....

Check the inside diameter of the flue exhaust flange and see if it is 7". If it's 7" your stove is a model LCC.

Inside the Gibraltar PDF you will see a good parts drawing of the stove with the part names. Make sure that you have the right Model stove when you order parts.

I just measured the top and it does have an inside diameter of 7" .......... I don't have a sandblaster and was wondering if I could sand it with a with a wire grinder type attachment for my drill ?

so I tried sanding it with my belt sander and with the wire brush attachment and it's a slow, slow process...... I was looking at sand blasters, would it make a big difference if I used that instead?

does anybody know if you can rent them? (sandblasters) I have a little pancake air compressor so I think I would have to rent an air compressor too.

well nobody in my area rents sandblasters, but I found a place that normally does car and truck work that's willing to do it. and after looking at all the parts I'm only confussed about two of them so I'm going to post a pick with them circled, at first I thought that they where the fire brick retainers but there are two that I know for the sides and then the bar that looks like angle iron that goes across the back so I'm kinda at a loss as to what they're for.
