Title: Junior Bow Front Post by: Ken R on October 06, 2011, 05:20:20 pm Here's a nice cooler for sale if anyone is interested in it. Seems pretty reasonable depending on the quality of workmanship done.

If that were near me, I would be talking to him in person about now. Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: Ken R on October 06, 2011, 05:45:13 pm I'm not familiar with these coolers. Is that a Westinghouse?
Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: RC kid on October 06, 2011, 05:56:23 pm I would jump on that if it were located near me.
Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: Ken R on October 06, 2011, 08:34:23 pm Which is better, the water cooler model or the ice model? Dangers of electrocution with water model when reaching in??
Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: cokecolaman on October 06, 2011, 08:36:14 pm These never come up near me.... I would jump on it!
Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: MoonDawg on October 06, 2011, 08:59:06 pm Which is better, the water cooler model or the ice model? Dangers of electrocution with water model when reaching in?? The WD-5 you pointed out is air cooled. Ice coolers are a hassle to fill and drain. Water circulating coolers won't electrocute anyone but as with ice, they are also a pain in the :censored: Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: rayg on October 06, 2011, 09:07:23 pm It is nice looking and I really like the size of it. If you are serious about getting it, I would ask the seller to send you some more pics of all sides and of the inside.
Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: Ken R on October 06, 2011, 09:07:44 pm The guy told me this model is an icebox....perhaps he doesn't know what he has and it's supposed have a compressor???
Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: Ken R on October 06, 2011, 09:08:26 pm He said he has someone looking right now that may purchase, so I'll have to wait to see if that deal falls thru or not. :down: :darn:
Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: Slapshot42 on October 06, 2011, 11:25:06 pm It resembles the WD-50, but I believe that has an external cap catcher?
It looks like a Westinghouse Brand. Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: collecture on October 06, 2011, 11:35:29 pm It is definately a Westinghouse WD-5. I can tell by the BO Bezel and the lack of embossed "Ice Cold" on the bottom front. The Cavalier 3-case had that embossment.
The real question is whether it is complete and cools! $500 is a good price! Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: Slapshot42 on October 06, 2011, 11:41:02 pm Thanks for confirming I just checked my manuals, and I would say by the pictures it's a WD-5, is what I meant, darn you auto correct.
I paid 300 for the WD-10. Anybody had any experience restoring the WD-10 with the 28-Z tub gasket via Funtroincs? I have a sample piece, and I really can figure out how it supposed to be positioned. PM me if you can help Title: Re: Junior Bow Front Post by: Ken R on October 06, 2011, 11:45:14 pm Assuming the WD5 has a compressor, I'd say this one is not complete, especially since he told me it was just an icebox. I have a feeling that these guys have no idea what they have and are passing it off as something it isn't....ignorantly.
