I have one of those. I have it tore down, and getting ready to restore it. It is a hard one to restore. The inside is filled with asbestas, so if you do get it and restore it, be careful of the insulation inside of the tub. I gave $400.00 for mine. It was complete, but not working. Mine had the Plastic Pepsi medallion on the front. It was a little rough, so I am having it recreated. I think it should be done. If you do get a chance to buy it, don't give over $400.00 for it.

If I get it, I'd most likely want to purchase a copy of your reproduction plastic medallion. Any idea of what the cost will be?

Thanks for the heads up on the asbestos, I work in the environmental field and am aware of the health hazards presented by it.  Is it the kind that looks like corrugated cardboard, solid or is it fibrous like Pink insulation?
