Vintage gas stoves (range)?

Anyone running a 20's-50's gas stove on propane? Our current stove (I'm guessing 80's early 90's era) has a non-functional oven. I don't want a new stove with a circuit board controlling the oven instead of a knob. So...either repair the current one, which is ok but not really my style-or replace with an oldie. I LOVE some of the 50's ranges but DH prefers the 20's-30's style. Just looking for some pointers on them, will have to find someone locally to go through it and make sure it's safe. I don't really need a redo, chipped is ok with me.
