I was so intrigued by it!! I had them hold it for me until I could find out if parts were available, which is how I landed here. I want it so badly but concerned about the plug, it's a straight 3 prong like a dryer but one plug is an L on one end for the dryer unlike this plug. Do you know anything about it?? I offered $200. not knowing it's value & they accepted. They called the owner & He said everything works, I will find out I guess!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02695660353198803652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499453915127182561.post-31900208565355852802016-07-17T11:36:16.839-04:002016-07-17T11:36:16.839-04:00I just got one,was looking on info or cooking a tu...I just got one,was looking on info or cooking a turkey.

We have a 1963 in our home that we have used daily for the past 33 years and are in the process of restoring it, and we are searching for a new cookmaster clock. Do you have a working spare at all that you'd be willing to sell, or have any suggestions where to look? We could really use the whole clock including the three little dials. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!Dusty Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08507928321730277118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2499453915127182561.post-50983774656880071042011-12-21T17:06:53.785-05:002011-12-21T17:06:53.785-05:00I have this same exact model.
