@Neil_VT00 - Be careful not to get any of the Scratch X into areas missing porcelain. I made the mistake of using it on one of the rust spots and it left a white powdery residue in the cracks and crevices.  Had to scrub it out with a tooth brush and paint thinner.

This Chariot is my favorite dejunkification of all time.

Jim If all the grate tabs are gone you might be able to hack a black kettle so it fits inside the lime.

That is exactly what I am in the process of doing Ray.  Got an old black MBH that the handles were rotted out and the leg sockets had been bolted back on.  All the nuts and bolts on the leg sockets are so corroded I am having to cut them off with a Dremel. Next I plan on cutting the bowl rim off so hopefully it will fit inside the lime bowl. Then if I can line up the vent holes, I will bolt the vents onto the lime bowl. Takes a lot longer for me as all I have is a mini rotary Dremel. Man I wish we were neighbors.  You have the tools, welders and skills I lack.
