Nice Empire heater. The price of fuel nowadays gave you the push to go get that. :clap:

Nice road trip!

It was on the opposite side of New York from me. 10 hours out sleep for 3 hours talked with the owner then headed back. Bought it several months ago but with Holidays and weather never made it out to get it. Hopefully when I tear it down it won’t be in too bad of shape. Won’t know until then though.

That sounds like fun. A nice "get-a-way" from being stuck inside all winter. Hope you got to say Hi to Fred, while you were in his hood. Good luck with the new stove. Would be nice if it could be more than just a hall-way decoration.
