Found this fridge to keep my beer cold - paid $100 bucks and it works 1950’s model so 57 Chevy seemed like a good idea

Looks nice enough for the kitchen! Although I know my wife wouldn't let me do that, no problem, keep it in the shop!
 
While it won't match most kitchen decors, anybody that doesn't think it looks cool in a garage probably doesn't have a heartbeat.

Somebody that didn't know any better might think it came that way.;)
 
I actually thought about doing that but OEM chrome is cool for that era- my mom who is 82 said she would like it for her kitchen- ha ! I told her dad needed a bigger fridge for his food and wine - made them much smaller back then

Looks Fantastic!!

Back in about 80, we bought a new fridge, and one in the house was excellent, and the wife said good one to put outside under the overhang.
So took to the garage and painted it a brown metallic too match her Tornado, I swear the hours I had in this could have done a car allover.
In 85, when we sold the house, the buyer wanted the fridge and offered to pay for it, gave it to him.
 
Retro fridge’s are kinda the thing for some people who want them for their “man cave” - they aren’t hard to find - prices range from $100-$700 - I just wanted something to keep my beer cold - sits in my other garage

problem is comed wants to pay you 50.00 to have them take them away and buy one more efficient. I guess finding that truck is a gold mine
