I recently purchased this not too long ago, I haven't had a chance to post'r up... the glass believe it or not isn't cracked or chipped either... Having the framed nozzle holder kinda sold me too after I had went to view it the day I purchased it. It was almost complete, just missing the cover plate by the handle and the attachment up top for a globe. few rods etc.. but all there. The internals are frozen as expected, but I feel pretty fortunate that it wasn't all rusted through & had holes anywhere, it just has a really really baked on paint coating or two that's almost looks like Rhino-liner
I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it.. leave it as is or do a rusto-mod to it... I know I can't take the top off without breaking the glass as it's bonded together over the years & sealed together... I sometimes have thought about drilling a 2" access hole in the top & just plug it back up with a color matching cap so I can clean the glass... it's so far up there nobody would see it... besides, it's meant for me to appreciate & not worry about selling it... rusty eye-candy
If I do that, it's not happening anytime soon, I'll start tinkering with it over the winter & get it inside.
