    Well, I like the restoration.

    I think these are very fine heaters and yours looks excellent. I haven't found one yet...

    thanks tony and if it helps i do have another one thought it is minus the outer protected guard and the lower panel the burners have been cleaned and polished even the valves the only draw back is on the thank there are 2 very small pin holes which now after using so many different types of sealant they have been plugged ;tomorrow i can send pictures of it if you might be interested as i have no need for 2 of them;the reflector is nice plus the side panels are good even with a fresh coat of a nice paint i do have the vaporizers as well with new seals and the pump works great ;here are a few pictures if again you might be interested and i have found out that taken the heater apart helps with the weight of shipping these are so easy to put together 'do let me know the pictures are of the one i have that is complete but it is the same paint i used ; the guard i have the correct measurements to make one again let me know
