Restoring America...1 machine at a time!

Saw this fridge that sold at Barrett Jackson. Was this a factory option? Ha! Lot #5483... Sold for $15,500. Pretty good price too!




Looked like a good price for this coke cooler as well! All you gotta do is chrome your bottle opener!

All it needs is Carol Shelby's autograph that would increase the value even more! I wonder how fast it cools from 0 to 60?

Nice one brian! Found one here in my area for only $50 and it works! Looks like I have a pretty good profit margin! Check it out!

Old refridgerators are cool ever notice how small the freezer part is on them they didnt have all the frozen crap we have today. now a days everything is processed and frozen. I would love to have an old kelvinator.

Well that "Shelby" frig is the sorriest thing I've seen in a long time. Bet profit was 12k at least so I'm in the wrong business :-)
