I’d fix and keep it if I had the space and need. That thing will outlast every other appliance in your home if you can get or repair the faulty part with one of equal quality.

I was hoping to get 5 years out of the fridge I bought in 1991. I am still using it today, as well as a Hoover vac that my parents gave me as a Christmas present in 1986. I agree with El about fixing that old fridge. Old stuff is just neat.
Yup, exactly! I have to update the old tools thread with my latest additions. So many people overlook the quality of the old stuff. I guess some of us can repair some of th eolder things when needed and some can't, maybe that's part of the problem.
I wonder if a guy could do a little upgrading on a frig like that with say a new compressor, and stuff to make it a little more energy efficient. It would make an awesome garage frig!

If I lived close I'd take it off your hands. I'm guessing the thermostat is probably toast. It's possible maybe just the contacts need cleaning.
Can you find a model number on it? I'd be interested in just doing a little research to see if it would be repairable, just for sh!ts and giggles.

I don’t know about a new compressor Scooter. My 17 year old shop fridge is on Compressor number 6 or 7, I’ve lost count. A couple weeks ago the death rattle came back, so I guess another $400 repair bill is in my future.
My folks have one in the basement that’s older than me and it still runs like a Swiss watch.
1st snow ride of the year, they'll be a second,third and so on all day. Fresh 5" just not enough to pull the sleds around, oh well there's always next time. Donuts are always fun!

LMK next time, I'll bring the 4 snows!!
We only got about 2 to 3 "s of snow.
Not quite enough, 10"s seems to be the sweet spot and the track here is a blast in the snow!!
All our government does is distract us while they steal from us, misspend our tax $ and ruin our country
Today, (and several days lately when I haven't been deer hunting) working on saws, overhauling most. Today it is a Husqvarna 55 for a friend. Cylinder had alot of transfer in it from a bad air leak at the intake coupler. Saved the cylinder using muriatic acid and sanding by hand. Got the saw the rest of the way torn down, cleaned and ready for reassembly today. Just waiting on parts now.
Saw will run fine with those minor scratches that remain in the plating near the exhaust port. The flashlight and camera really amplify the severity of it. In reality they are pretty faint.

Will do, in winter were always around unless we run to the store, just head over 495 north exit 21. The wife likes playin w/fire so theres at most times one going. We had a nice slippery track made THEN our good neighbor came over with her new 4x4 polaris couch and rutted it all up. I may need to invest in some 4-snows this 5" was pushing the limit until packed down.
Was almost tempted to head your way, that tracks gotta be a blast with a few inches on it.
Until next time,
Oh, Our neighbor is 21 she's too young for ya though, tiny little girl w/a large quad that won't/cant do donuts.
My son AJ decided to tryout a blue tailight, good thing about it was i could tell where he was at all times
