1977 Grandpa on left.
Normal size Grandma on right.

Grandma in center is what I call a wide body.
The doors on the two Grandmas are the same size and may have GM/L and GM/R marked inside. Notice the trees are very close together at door seam. When the matching smaller trees were designed for the later Grandpa’s to match, they are much farther apart.

To make the same doors fit the wider stove, the hinge plates were reversed angled inward instead of outward.

Not many fabricators made the wider model. Most common from the Dunn Brothers from VA and W.VA.
