Picked this cooler up for $500. Been hunting for one for a while now. No serious rust and totally complete. Doesn't work, but didn't matter to me because I want to convert it to electric. Going to be an anniversary present to my parents who just remodeled their lake house in Austin, where it will sit out on the deck holding plenty of white wine and beer.

Nice! the GE standard looks great when they're redone! ( hope you know a good sign painter/pin-striper!) do you mean your converting it from water cooled to air cooled? ( I assume so)

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

I hope your best friend is a sign painter with all the embossed stuff. I had to take out a second mortgage to get my "double" done. I can help you with how to "mask" over the Pepsi insignia to get it right. They are great looking when they are finished. Good luck.

I bought one of these several years ago but it's missing the bottom louvered section. If you have an extra one, let me know!
