I got this 81D at an auction yesterday. Cleaned up the compressor area today by vacuuming the mice nests out (lots of gutted Hazelnuts)...replaced the condenser motor (with a working used one)....plugged it in and it cooled down like a champ in 15 minutes. It is simply amazing to me how bulletproof these old refrigeration decks are!

Not an incredible deal, but a nice solid machine. No visible rust through areas and only a few dents...louvres are straight.
Almost complete (I had a spare SO flag & condensation pan), but need a shelf with slider if anyone has one....willing to buy or barter! LMK please!

$1300 was the hammer, but add in B.P., tax & gas = $1500+ in the garage.
There were a lot of tools there that went pretty cheap. '71 Gran Torino was a really clean 1-owner all-original car = $6300
