Our old Holiday stove was in OK shape, if you don't mind some rat feces and a broken knob. First thing was to disassemble and clean everything.
The left knob stop was broken, so you never knew if it was on or off. I can't be sure kids playing house didn't twist it too hard, but the fix was pretty easy. Where the stop pin was broken, we just pushed a little more of the pin out through the shaft and it still had at least half inside.
We then painted the inside and outside of the box with high rust paint. We didn't think we needed high temp as most of the heat is directed upwards and the box was pretty badly rusted from the leaking vent above.
We reused the old copper gas line which was very heavy and good quality. It had a small kink outside, but no leaks when pressurized with propane. We replaced the old regulator with a new one from Amazon and the stove fired up great on the first try.
