Bought this today and my plains is to restore it and use it for my house. The old house that it came out of was built in the 1940s and the old guy said that his papaw built the house and he thinks that its older then the 40s. Maybe one of you guys can give me an i dea on how old it could be. The old stove was cast iron with no fire brick and i have never seen a stove with out fire brick but it is cast iron and it with the stokol in it didnt look like much room to put fire brick. My plains are to restore the stove and stokol and i will post pictures as i get it done. If anyone has a stokol and have parts missing or wonder what it looks like i can send pictures of mine to help. P.S Can anyone tell me about what size motor would go on this stokol? Sorry if i put this in the wrong place. Thanks
