I am trying to identify this cooler that i just bought! The tag says Cavalier with a serial # but no model. It is a wet machine with stainless liner. Has all the original Frigidaire system, runs but no cooling. Very little rot and perfect top doors! It looks a lot like several other machines but I have not found one single picture anywhere of the same machine! Can anyone help me out!!
Thanks!

Mine has an internal cap catcher with the small drawer at the right bottom. Does not have the chrome front lid and no access door at the lower left front!! I have looked for hours on the net and cannot find another one like mine!

Post a picture of the data plate. It may help. It could be a later version of what you are seeing out there like Slapshot pointed out.... Or it's the rarest Cavalier cooler in the existence of mankind!!!!  tounge

Wow, that's quite the setup on the cooling system, looks like a very early manufacturing attempt with the refrigeration system...way too clunky

Looks like part of a big Healey to me.
