Very nice!  The Eco's are valuable pieces, even unrestored.  I did a pole mount version for my gas island display, but I always wanted the Islander version.  I finally found a smokin deal on a partially restored one.

Very Nice Pat ! ! !

Have you ever heard of "re-gifting"...?
If not, just send it my way and I consider it a generous gift ! ! !

It will look nice on your wall too ! ! !

That is a beautiful restoration. I've been looking for one of these for a while. It's got.to be the "wall mount" version like Pat's. If It's a little rough is ok too. If someone has one for sale let me know.
