       We all appreciate machines that have never been repainted and have been kept indoors most of their life, they're called survivors.

       On the other hand, we see Westinghouse chests that have been hauled into the woods or deserts to be used as firepits for hunters,
who evidently get drunk and shoot up these coolers before they leave.  biggrin

        Oh If these machines could talk what stories would they tell?  Hats off to a true survivor:

Three entrance holes, only one exit. There's two bullets in there somewhere!
Would make for a cool story to have the two in a jar or something on top of the machine.

Good eye on the three in one out. Suspect they are still in the first layer of the cab since the rack appears fine.
Great machine!

I know this is going to sound dry and technical, but how does this affect insulation of the machine? Will it still cool properly? If you wanted to fix the holes, what would be the best way to go about it?
