Post by: Seven181 on May 23, 2009, 02:20:38 pm
Hey Gang! Met a guy today that has these and not sure what they are worth? Does anyone know what kind of gas pump this is?? Was someone here looking for one of these refrigs?

some cool stuff.. the fridge I've seen restored in some cool themes... but not sure on value.
The pump is a 60's era pum, still pretty cool with the large Glass window, and I think the top is all Stainless. so could look cool all cleaned up . not real valuable couple hundred bucks or so I'd guess.
The Lubester, pretty average.. I cna find am around me for 50 bucks.
The pachinko games.. eh.. nothing great.

Thanks John! I was just wondering on the pump and the fridge. I might grab the pump. I knew the games were not worth anything.

It's an AMI F, very rough shape. No key, wood is very bad. He is not sure if it works, he says it lights up. Wanted $250 for that.

The turnstill (sp) would be cool in a home theater.

I have paid anywhere from $80.00 to $250.00 for the refrigerator if they still work, and has some of the shelves and trays insides.
Kind of neat when they are restored.

The turnstyle is cheap, $50 anyone want it? The refrig has all the shelfs and works, missing cord, but plugged in an extension to show it worked.

I had the same one and gave it away when I moved. They are really cool looking. You just don't want to ever have a line rupture as they used Ammonia as a refrigerant. The whole top just lifts off and then the box is really light. It makes them very top heavy but very easy to move around. Would be cool restored and make a usefull refrigerator. Although Im not sure how well they work as the small freezer up at the top and that is how the whole box is cooled. No fans or anything.

I'm wanting one of those monitor top fridges myself, but I'm holding out for the two door model with porcelain exterior panels.  I was offered one in Tallahassee, FL in great working shape for $200, but that's a bit far to run and fetch.  I'd settle for a single door, but really like the look and space of the 2 door.  It will be the garage fridge (though if I had my way it would be the house fridge and we'd have a freezer in the garage!).
