I run an original (round) Deep Freeze brand freezer here as the main frozen food store. I put a kill-a-watt on it for a month a couple years ago and was surprised at how little power it used (wish I had the numbers handy, but it was a couple bucks a month, tops). Ice cream stays rock hard, and...

...No Comment.... ; )

Depends... I've bought and sold cars on CL and a couple of thoughts... If we're talking a transaction where it's reasonable a person would pay in cash, meet in a local spot, your bank parking lot or even in the parking near a police station. Lots of people and cameras around. If the payment is...

Rick, beautiful Olds! Funny, the gridwork on the brake and accel remind me of the '62 Starfire grille. Clever! Speaking of road warriors, this is the cross-country appliance hauler. '87 Scottsdale setting out for Wisconsin tomorrow pulling the Shasta reissue. Gold vinyl benches, vinyl floor...

Stan, I hear ya. The past two years I've been daily-driving my '59 Catalina, no seat belts, 4-wheel drums, 389, AM radio playing the oldies during my commute. It's a unique experience. I did upgrade to a power booster with dual chambers for safety, but they're still drums and you need to plan...

FYI, if anyone is looking for a PDF copy of the RR-10/A manual, I've uploaded a copy here at the following link. This is also text searchable. 95% of this also applies to the RR-9T/TA. -C http://www.radar58.com/radarange/manuals/RR10_Manual.pdf

Good question Ben. The seller was feeling me out for participation in an ongoing bidding war. I decided to pass on that nonsense!

Guys, this is an easy drive for me and I've shot the seller a message. We'll see how things go!

What a way to ruin a nice Wonder-kitchen. Looking at the auction pics, it looks like it was taken out by gorillas (timer glass broken, control panel parts yanked, where are all the missing screws?) then I imagine someone got the bright idea to look it up on the net and realized it _was_ worth...

My elementary school was built in the 60's and added onto several times later, but I remember was the late 70's DuKane intercom in the main office and if you wanted, you could sign up to read the morning announcements or read aloud the bus numbers as they arrived in the afternoon for pickup as...

FYI, the 'chrome door' Radaranges have a very elegant monitor switch circuit that has always impressed me. Rather than the 'brute force' dead-short approach taken by other manufacturers (that requires switch replacement), in the RR, a wire wound resistor is placed in the circuit and a thermal...

This sounds odd, but I make it a habit to grab the appliance bulbs out of the older fridges and ovens that are headed for the scrapper...or are already at the scrapper waiting for processing. These tend to be older, higher quality, US built bulbs.

Thanks guys! Greg, I'm assuming this was offered as a special order, when you look at the marketing lit, the 1010 was top dog in the lineup (Touchmatic II) yet here exists the 1110. (Manufacture date of '83) Makes me wonder if someone at Amana realized they already had the parts for the...

Thanks John. This is the only Touchmatic 3 I've found in the wild and I imagine most didn't look closely enough to realize what it was. I picked up a NEMA t-slot adapter on Saturday; my circuits are all 20A but my outlets are 'standard' 15A. This'll find a nice spot in the kitchen lineup. -C

Joe, just sent you an email.

Recently I picked up a pretty unique Radarange on eBay...shipping ended up being more than the estimator had calculated, but I paid it no problem (seller was relieved) and offered some shipping tips to guarantee this thing wouldn't get destroyed. When the machine arrived, they had ignored every...

That blue reminds me of a 1959 GM color, Tampico Turquoise Poly. Has the same iridescence to it, too.

Phil, it sure looks like the stamp says '77, and if you start Blackhorse with '71, then that looks like an O on the serial plate (there's some debate if you start with 70 or 71). You'll note the brown case which jibes with that timeframe, which makes this 4ETW all the cooler. I don't think...

In my experience, if it's big enough and heavy enough to be shipped by freight, you'll get a call a day or so ahead of time from the carrier to arrange delivery once it gets to the local terminal.

Well now, that's a sharp looking range!
