So . . I've recently bought a house in Southeast Michigan with what I think is a VC Resolute III (Double doors on the front and a manual).
From what I gather (from the neighbors), the previous owner never used it in the 10 years they owned the house.
I just had the broken glass on the doors replaced this past week and am getting the chimney cleaned next week and looking at wood to buy.
It may be a bit late to be asking but (having moved from Texas) I'm asking anyway.
1) Is this thing worth firing up? Am I asking for trouble? Or more effort than it's worth?
2) Are these part of the stove? I didn't see them in the manual and can't see where they might fit?
3) Does this wire gasket under the griddle need to be replaced?
4) Is there anything else I should know or be doing to get the most out of this stove? Any secret knowledge to be passed along?
Thanks!
