Unloaded this one tonight was lurking on Craigslist for about a week seller was motivated to sell!!!  Missing the shelves in the inside and the cap catcher.  A lot bigger than I remember haven't seen one in a few years!

Even has a bullet hole glad they missed the embossing!  biggrin

This is one is NOT refrigerated!!

Spent a little time on this one over the last few days.  Out of many machines I've taken appart this one has been difficult with a lot of the fasteners rusted solid!!  PB Blaster and a propane torch didn't even cut the rust!  Next up is oxy accetalne torch!

As I started to work in this I discovered that it was actually the refrigerated version as I tilled the machine on its back I saw the cooling lines.  I had a friend pickup so never really noticed.

The cooling lines are soldered to the tub just like a Ideal 55. Removing the liner was a absolute bear took almost an hour. Very little rust...
