That DW is great. How about some shots of the inside? Vintage DW's are great. We've been using a '59 Kitchenaid for about 10 years now.

Anyone interested in this? Make me an offer!

That is sooooooooo cool. Hope someone here can wind up with it! I have a GE undercounter freezer from the same era. It's also white on the outside with that pink interior. Does yours show a date on the papers glued to the back?

Yep, no moving parts...... ......and 3 or 4 inches of thick insulation in every direction. Nirvana!

I've got an extremely nice (dare I say "perfect") Rid-Jid for sale on ebay if anyone needs the ultimate vintage ironing board to go with their collection of vintage steam irons. I'm not sure how accurate ebay's shipping calculator is, but I'll give you a refund if you wind up overpaying. It...

Put a Kill-O-Watt Meter on my 1952 Philco about 2 months ago and got similar results. Cost a couple bucks a month to run. We purchased it used for $150 in 1993, and following a $300 paint job, new door gasket, and a bit of rechroming to the handle, door lettering, and meat drawer front handle...

Just my 2 cents worth..... Here's my opinion about wanting, keeping, having, using, vintage appliances. I'm speaking from the position of, I have an entire home full of vintage appliances that we use every day, many of which I've restored. It takes a certain amount of money to rescue and be...

Yeah, that's definately not a good sound. No sense in continuing to let it run. Hopefully with a recharge and new refrigerant oil, it'll be cured. Otherwise, can these be upgrade to a modern compressor?

Yep, been to the TDi forms as well, and I agree, some of the stuff on them is just, well, disappointing....to say the least. They seem to dip into "check engine light" hell fairly easily, and diagnosing them is killing me. A few months ago, I sent one of my customers to the dealer because I...

Sorry for the miss-info about the fan I wouldn't have thought it had a fan, but someone mentioned it, and my late 50's GE freezer had it, so I was thinking maybe it was a GE thing to have a fan. Sorry about that. My '52 Philco doesn't have a fan either. Your compressor certainly makes more...

Here's my 3 cents worth Melissa... What you are looking at on the back of the fridge is called the condensor coils. These transfer the heat removed from the inside of the fridge/freezer, to the air on the outside. Now, look down at the lower back and you should see the tubes from the...

The Samba is great. VWVortex.Com is also excellent, although I'm there for the water cooled stuff and not the air cooled. I have a pretty lengthy post on the Samba from when I resurrected a '92 Eurobarge (Eurovan) for my wife's uncle.

Fantastic looking GE!! Welcome to the forum. Based on your photo, I'm wondering what that fridge actually needs in the way of "restoration" type work. Looks to me like if you hand polish the exterior paint, and then wax it, it'll look nearly new. IMO, less is more on this kind of stuff. If...

Thanks for more photos!! Love the details on the Tatra! The split back glass and air intak scoops are a real treat. That '70 Beetle is fantastic! Growing up we had a '63, and then a '68 Type 3 wagon and after that, a '70 Wagon. That was in Alaska, and the '70 was real sweet because it had...
