Kelvinator Foodarama Wanted

[ajf5577]

I want one of these to restore for our kitchen. As complete as possible preferred. Outside Condition is not as important as having the shelves and interior accessories present.

I should have elaborated. We are restoring a 1910 Farm House and I am using my collection for this. We decided on a Foodarama for the fridge-freezer. Also looking for a 50/s Dish Washer and Stove for the same setting.

Check out Thread #9037. They have a vintage Tappan range for sale. Might be worth checking out.

Sounds cool that you want a 1950's setting for your kitchen. I live in a small 1922 bungalow and thanks to a fantastic friend and member on this board I finally got one. When I bought my house it came with newer GE profile appliances. The fridge was wayyyyyy to huge and didn't look right in the spot. My house came with a flat-top stove which fit but looked too modern. My friend first hooked me up with a 1956 GE mobile maid dishwasher, and then the most beautiful 1956 Frigidaire fridge. I had my grandma's 1950's GE stove in storage for the past 20 years and finally moved it to the kitchen. He is coming over to fix it as it has some wiring issues. Anyway.... my kitchen looks fantastic now thanks to him, and will get pictures posted as soon as I'm able. Good luck with your set-up. My "non appliance" friends thought I was a little nuts for wanting to get rid of the newer appliances, but now my kitchen has a vintage look to match the rest of the house!

It will be a good way to use some of the "collection" but I want to use the right appliances. I would love to come across a mid 50's dishwasher (working or close to it).
The next step would be to find the old ashpalt or rubber tile, and that old linoleum style counter top material.
