Title: Westinghouse cooler
Post by: firemun on May 05, 2004, 10:27:11 pm
I am negotiating on a cooler on-line. Model number is WH 12T which leads me to believe it is Westinghouse. Most WH 12Ts I see (including the photos on this site) show red/white color scheme.

Anyone know if Westinghouse made the WH 12T in solid red? Trying to find out the manuf. before closing the deal.

I have also seen reference to a Cavalier WH 12T ???
See attached
Thanks for any info.

I believe the older ones were red and later in production went to the two tone.

Just for anyone who might be interested in a follow up. I did buy this cooler. Turns out it was painted solid red but sometime previously had the red/white scheme. In addition, the lid was 1/2 stainless but had someone had put some "bondo" in it and had been painted red also.

Rewired the compressor, put new gaskets on the body and lids and it works great. Plan to restore totally in the winter but father in law want to use it this summer in his produce market.
