We'll be remodeling a bathroom this winter and pulling a jetted tub (it's a big one - roughly 4' x 6'). It's in perfect working order. I'd be interested in trading for a good claw foot tub if anyone is also looking to remodel a bathroom.
My pops just pulled one out of his house in Plymouth.
Want me to check if he still has it?

Close your eyes, look deep in your soul, step outside yourself and let your mind go.
That would be great. That's not too far from me. Thanks.
I have one but it's not it great shape. The paint Needs to be refinished. Pm me your email and I can send pics if needed.
We're on the process of adding a 2nd bathroom and remodeling the primary one. It's going to be a month or so before it may be available.
I could give you one heck of a deal.

Thanks for the offer - there are lots available down here that need refinishing. I'm hoping to avoid that if possible.
Just FYI : refinishing a claw foot tub it fairly easy as long as you don't need perfection. I did one about 15 years ago in a half a day. It came out quite good. You should do it outside because the epoxy paint is very strong smelling.
1: Turn it upside down and sand/wire brush any rust. Paint the outside of the tub with any sort of good enamel spray paint. (or you can brush it on, but spray can is easier for me)
2: For the inside of the tub, sand down any stains or chips. If you want perfection, you may need to sand blast. I just did some quick hand sanding. The epoxy paint is very thick and it fills in small imperfections. I used one of those small foam rollers. The best quality one I could find. I got the epoxy tub paint kit at Sherwin Williams I think, but I can't say if that is the best brand or not. The paint is nasty, sticky, smelly stuff, but it fills in small chips pretty well and hardens up to a tough shinny coat.
I did it in the summer, outside. I'm not sure how you will deal with doing it somewhere warm (so the paint spreads correctly) without smelling up the house.
