I have the opportunity to buy a Vermont Castings Resolute that is about as ugly as can be from surface rust. The owner sounds straight-forward and knowledgeable, and has told me that it is structurally very sound, no cracks or issues (he bought as is for a shop, but is now moving). He is asking $250. I don't know the age, but the enamel color is grey, which I don't believe is made these days. My question is: is this worth purchasing, finding someone to sandblast, and someone to re-enamel? I don't know of the efficiency nor cost of doing either, but I figure that I might get the unit I want, and save around $1000 over price of new. Any suggestions? Thanks much. Will attempt to include photo.
