 That oven is excellent and will probably last many more years. I have a P*7 wall oven that also works just fine. The entire range seems to be in excellent shape, very clean. If you like electric range tops then I don't see why you couldn't just use it for a while to see how you like the range. The color is not exactly contemporary now, but who knows maybe it will come back some day.
Otherwise I'm sure there is a collector who would be interested, maybe even in your area. | ||

Please keep the Stove. Browse the new ones on the sales floor. I think you will be very happy with your decision. | ||

With this range being kept as pristine as it is, please keep it and use it.
It is begging to serve a busy family that needs all of its features. Mom and dad took it out for church on Sundays, it needs someone to take it down the freeway with a fully open throttle!!! I sell appliances. I sell ranges every day. I wished the new ones were built like what you've got here. Parts are still available for this unit. | ||

I have a similar oven in the wall version and have been unable to locate a replacement meat thermometer probe. Mine also has a rotisserie setup but those accessories are gone as well.
Here's one way to help keeping a range clean: get a good quality covered propane powered BBQ with rotisserie/back burner option. Put it out on a patio, preferably under some cover if you can. Use that for roasting meats and such. It will help keep the range clean and also keep those cooking odors out of the home. Lately I got a large Lodge cast iron grilling pan, and have been using that for roast/grilling chicken thighs/legs. It works great.
And, these days, one can do a lot of cooking in the microwave, such as vegetables and reheating stuff. That will also keep it off the stove.

Your model number is J487, and the additional digits just indicate the version and color. The next number (16.2 kw) is the electrical rating. The serial starting with VM indicates a manufacture date of November 1971. I can guarantee everyone this range didn't leave the factory with a "gas top", as GE didn't make gas ranges at that time. | ||

That looks completely unused. I would keep that, it's better built than anything you can get today and will still be working after anything sold now has been replaced most likely! | ||
