Bought this unit recently and kid you not, in the description from the guy selling he used our favorite line:
"Just needs a little work and some Freon"..

Wow, how could that happen?
The compressor is probably still good, how is the base of the machine?

I was surprised the base was not just as shot,, but it was pitted but not gone like the base of the cooling unit.
Yep the compressor fired right up , but with the system exposed from open lines, I'm sure it'll have it's issues..
I'm having a Refrig guy look it over and see if it's worth saving.. most likely will just toss whole works outside of any usable parts.
