1949 Hotpoint

[countryford]

We've had this 1949 Hotpoint Refrigerator for a while now. It works great, but the paint on it was ok. Well a good friend of ours does auto body paint and said he would paint our fridge for us. This is the before pic

The after pic

This is what it looks like now. And yes that is pink. We just have to order new gaskets for it now.

This friend also painted the hood as well. The hood came with the house when we bought it. Its a youngstown kitchen. Looks brand new

Fabulous work!

 

Any chance for money shots of the fridge?

well here are the money shots before it got painted. Once we get the new seals on(which we don't have yet) and all the shelves back in I'll post with the new money shot pics.

Wedgewood gas stove??? Looks like one here in for rebuild.

That turned out spectacular! I've been hunting for a body shop to paint my Philco, most of them look at me askance. You've inspired me to look harder. Thanks!

The stove is an O'keefe and Merrit from 1941. We had the valves rebuilt in it. We bought the stove from the daughter of the original owner.
