ebay

This item has a Cavalier tag on it, but no model #.  To me it looks like a Westinghouse Standard Electric.  I looked in Walters book and Cavalier shows nothing like this.

What do we think it is and is it a mistake or is the seller trying to pull something ?

Keith, not sure about fraud but the paint job doesn't look so good up close... Look at all the crud on the id tag...  But for $10 it might not be so bad.

That's definitely a Standard Electric.

Some of the early Cavalier & Westinghouse Coolers are just about identical...
This cooler has been repainted and appears to be complete. The feet are correct too! Electric versions are not supposed to be painted; ice verions have red feet.

My six cents,
