Vintage 1950's Mid Century Canary Yellow GE Electric Stove with Wall

I can hear cringes, in some, at the colors - just posting what I find....and the ad reads:

You do not see this very often. This actually came out of an old grocery store that had an authentic vintage kitchen set up in there lunch room. Would have loved to get all the cabinets that matched but didn't have the room or the truck to pick up. Cabinets are long gone. But we do have this beauty of a stove. We do have the original wall mount electric box with all the stove controls & clock but it will have to be rewired since during disassembly it was cut in the wrong place. Stove & box for its age looks awesome. Really retro for that authentic 50's look. Asking $495 which may be way too low but we want to sell it not just keep it in stock to look at it. Cash only We have a ton of other goodies & just moved to a 10,000 sq foot space soon to be opened to the public. This is your chance to get 1st dibs on our inventory. Call to schedule an appt.

Checkrate/Likes Looks like one of the genuine nightmare GE 27" drop in range. My oldest uncle,Russell had one. An Americana with P7. The problem is that GE was the only manufacturer that made these so,if the took a crap, no other brand made them. You had to either cut the original space out, losing cabinet space or buy the same style. Neither of the two models of that style was available with a ceramic cooktop and you only had one eight inch burner to use. I'm not sure but they may still be making them.

Checkrate/Likes *The "Kill Bill Yellow" team has spoken* this isn't my idea of yellow or decorating, either..but there it is and if the price gets lower (free), a parts scenario could evolve ?
