60's apartment size Magic Chef in Airstream?

I just found this mint apt. stove/oven in a junk shop and thought "why not in the airstream". Does anyone know if the pressure from the 30lb. tank will work with residential stuff??

Thanks

I believe that you have to change a valve or orifice anytime you change from natural gas to propane. A stove restoration shop should know what to do or a propane distributor.

Airstreams in the 1950's used apartment size 20" wide stoves as there were no RV appliances then.
