    $100 for a Whit in any sort of good shape physically is a deal.

    The best I have ever found around here is $200 for a Whit.

    Part it out and make at least 3 times that.

    A good control board will bring at least $150 on ebay if not more

    Fix the glass, paint it and get $600

    I could see the glass be $$ to fix. The rest should be tolerable at least:whistle:

    #1 and #2 copper is down now too....sucks. Seems like the car and XL batteries are still doing decent in pricing though....at least around here.

    Normally, ceramic glass can be found at regular glass store, or can be ordered. Shouldn't be too $$. For a $100 bill, I'd take a chance.

    good grief. I havent done that in years but the yield used to be much higher. Whenever i put something containing any metal at all by the curb, i have a scrapper asking for it in under an hour. oh well.

    Isn't the glass in a 45 degree shape, if it isn't then it would be much cheaper.

    uh huh

    $100 for a stove like the Whit (if its not crap) is a steal.

    Big deal is that the cabinet and sheet metal are nice condition.

    Everything else is repairable
