Free standing Radiators?

Raptor44 · Feb 20, 2017

I just came across 12 free standing home house radiators that appear to be in very restorable condition. Range from 24 inch length to 36 inch. Any idea on what they are worth before restoring and after. Thanks for any input.

Probably all depends on the quantity in the
local market. Out west here in CA they
aren't real plentiful. I had one that had a
bunch of coats of latex paint and hasn't
been used in 50+ years and got something
like $20 for it, but I was just trying to
dispose of it and he was the first guy that
came along.

There is defiantly a market in NY for these. I do my own sand blasting commercially. I can have them coated and pressure checked. Just don't know pricing.

I had to replace one in my child hood home a few years ago. It was expensive. I needed to be sure of course, that it not have any invisible cracks. I expect that the key to it is if they are pressure checked or not
