Any idea the value of this Jotul 118?

[CoachB]

It's very rusty but no holes or any structural damage just rust. Any clue what I should be willing to pay for it, and should I restore it?

How are the interior left and right burn plates? What condition is the baffle in? If they are in good condition I would offer maybe $100? It will take a lot of manual labor to restore and the deep rust pits may not come out. Do they have the top cleanout port door?

 

[CoachB]

If I can get it for under $50 would that be a good deal regardless? I can then check all details.

Well under 50 if the plates and baffle are shot or missing. They are pricey, but last a long time with proper burning. Though if you are handy with welding and steel you could fab up a substitute.

What am I looking for when you say interior burn plates, baffle, clean out port door?

A fair chunk of change if all need to be replaced. The side port door that is missing may mean that they had it side vented. It's not really a clean out port. I just couldn't think of what to call it. Check to see if they have that part with a flue collar attached.

When looking up replacement parst note that this is a Jotul 118, not a Jotul F118CB.
