Help Support :

I have a similar combo fridge. The freezer is getting down to negative numbers yet won't shut off. I am having a hard time finding a new freezer control and capillary for it. Any one out there have any ideas?

1955 GE Missing parts

I just bought a 1955? 56? GE fridge and everything works great! However, the veggie drawers are missing the covers which also serve as glides to pull the drawers in and out. Does anyone know where I can find some? Or do you have some that you can send pictures of so I can make a retrofit substitute? I’d greatly appreciate it! Can’t wait to install it beside my 1955 GE Liberator Range!

Jessica,

That's a beautiful refrigerator!  Definitely a 1955 - due to the colors of the interior (yellow and blue - unique to 1955), and mechanical latch on the doors (magnetic doors were introduced in 1956).

 

Good luck with the search for the parts.  You might try reaching out to John Jowers at antiqueappliances.com and see if he might have spares of the parts you need, and that he would be willing to sell.

I

had to buy a rusty 1956 fridge to get the part you describe. it was 75 bucks for the whole thing. I also used the temp control and some trim pieces out of it so it was well worth it. I think that style was maybe 54-57
