Hi All,

Could use some help sorting what has happened on this box. Seller states the light-up door does not work. What I know about square tops doesn't even fill a thimble :-)
Thanks!

Hello'
     The object that you are wondering 'what has been cut' looks to be the process tube from when the manufacturer charged the system with refrigerant, and then is pinched off and soldered shut.  Does the unit still run and cool?
     Hope this helps. Bob

Yeah, you see that on almost everyone of those. Mine have that.

Just think of it as the umbilical cord that has been cut and is no longer needed. '<img'> '<img'>

Creights,
I hope you get it.
It looks nice.
Her's my favorite line from that auction: "I will deliver within 10 feet of my house".
Go get 'em champ!

Hi Creighton,
     That is a nice looking 63.
The other answer to question of the light not working in the bottle door is that the socket to hold the 7 watt bulb is gone, nothing to major, you can still find them once in awhile.
     Good luck on your bidding!

Thanks for the kind words!
Figure I can get past the minor issues on this box. Used a screwdriver to open mine for the better part of a year :-)

I'm really surprised it went for $420. I didn't stand a chance. No worries though, tomorrow is another day of searching :-)

Hey Kito,
Thanks for the follow-up. Looks to me like the square tops are doing *very* well. Jees, this wasn't near as the cool 3-D Pepsi of yours. Just a late model V-63 with wiring issues and a bad door liner. I be gettin that ad in the papers first thing come Monday:-)
