You'll probably find more people here who could be interested in the Bendix. If you have pictures of it, please consider adding them to the thread you started about it in the Imperial forum.
The stove looks pretty rough and being electric could present a real challenge to making it fully functional again. There's far more interest in gas stoves of that vintage than electric. If the legs are still around that may help you pass it along, but I honestly think that as is, the value would barely be into the three figures. This post was last edited 08/24/2013 at 01:32 |

The open coil rear burner looks to be original, but the two in front were fitted with replacement elements at some point and are probably much more efficient than the rear one. If someone wanted to restore this stove, they would have a hard time finding the original coils for those front two burners.
I once had an L&H electric stove of similar vintage and it had all open coil burners. Back in those days, I'll bet electric stoves were a tough sell over gas across the board except for the facts that they provided a cleaner heat source and kept the kitchen somewhat cooler. |
