Amen to that Eric! On top of sleepless nights and constant feeding and crying...there's paybacks for nine months of gestation. The wife is gonna demand some playtime herself leaving you with the dirty job.
I'm joining you Joey in 11 days! |

Looks like you are going to have your hands full (with the 81). Good luck and post pics of the progress.

Joey,
I'm glad to see that your salvaging the cabinet. Use a 2x6 and a 2-4# hammer from the inside of the cabinet to remove that big dent. You'll be amazed how easy it will be to get it straightened out.  '>

Patching rust through areas should not be too difficult, as always....the hardest part is starting the project, gets easier the better it looks. I see the typical 81 rust through on the beltline in the rear, but is that a rust hole in the top of the back panel? How would water collect there? And any idea why it was nesessary for some dimwit to chisel a hole in your main door?

Looks like a swamp find.... I have run into a few of those.. not 81's but Chest coolers where all you see is the top and when you try to pull it out of the earth... all you get is the top! Pretty much shot from there. My grandfather owned a bottling plant and that is where I got my bug. Of course no machines to speak of but when I started getting into this 10 years back or so.. I went back to our hunting land in norther wisconsin to "Search" and this is where I found about 8 old rusted out, Westinghouse/Cavalier Chest coolers, 2 39 cabinets (80%rusted out) a CS 72 and some Square tops... All where in a Dumb and mostly burried and under water... Oh what a shame... what a shame!

This one is believed to come out of a old dump, Its rough but worth saving, 10 even 5 years ago this would have been considered a loss. Remember the roundtop 56 with no bottom everyone thought I was nuts until they seen it with a bottom back on and standing up once again. My local friends thought I had lost it when it came home, now they see the 81 and dont even think anything about it.

Depending on the route I take to my parents' house, there is one headed down Route 29 in VA where across a field at a tree line I noticed a bunch of what look to be square top machines just sitting in the woods. It is a ways from the road, but you can make out what they are if you are looking and know what they are. I had gone past a few times and never noticed until last year.

How about these stories that the Army/Air Force just dropped a load of soda Machines and jukes into
the jungles of Vietnam and then just left them there. I wonder if there is any truth on that???
Dave.
