Default Trade electric cooktop for propane?

The '83 I just bought has an electric glass top cooktop by Amana. Would anyone be interested in trading for a propane? It's very clean.

Pics & dimensions on request.

We have the same electric cooktop in our '83 and I would rather have the propane as well. Is this a big job to change, assuming we can find the appropriate propane unit?

We have a Magic Chef 3 burner propane stove/oven and love it. I notice on Ebay there are a number of 3, and 4 burner stove/ovens for sale for under $400. Here are a couple of pictures. Just do a search for RV Magic Chef Stove.

Default Cooktop

I found this one in an '88--gas AND electric. Thought I'd find one on eBay but nada.

I think we're better off with a cooktop. Never have found a use for that thing they call an "oven"--except pan storage--and there are two nice slideout doors below the existing cooktop.

If i make the swap I'll post the gory details, Bluesky.
