    Help finding this fridge on line!!!
    I got a new fridge an an incubator, and when I say new, I mean new to me lol. It seems to be a pretty old fridge made by Westinghouse, and I am wanting to maybe restore it, get some cash for it, and buy a prebuild incubator for only maybe 4-6 tubs rather than this huge monster lol. So any help from anyone at all would be greatly appreciated!!! Here is a picture of the tag inside of the fridge itself, and I will try to also get you a picture of the fridge so you can compare it.

    Fridge itself (please ignore the floor, I had to mop it like 10 times to get all that crud up lol)

    Its already converted for incubation, it's just HUGE and I have mostly Boas, so I dont need such a big one. Hoping to maybe fix it up and get it working again and sell it for enough to buy something smaller!!!

    Also, I cannot believe I have a fridge from the late 50's in such a good condition man, its crazy!!!

    5ft wide, roughly six and a half feet tall, and a good three feet deep. That's a monster!

    Lol, you could try and find someone local. You wouldn't necessarily need to put original parts but just refit it with smaller modern parts to make it work. Could be someone's expensive beer cooler.

    Sell it to Rick @ American Restorations in Vegas or call him for parts.

    Vegas is a long way lol, I also think it has been painted on with something similar to that stuff you put in the back of you truck bed lol. So I dunno if that is going to completely take down the value or since it can be removed and repainted if its still good or not. I was hoping someone might want to buy it for like $200-$300. Then I can buy something MUCH more small. I will keep my price starting at $600 till someone lowers it on me, in hopes I will get more than just 2-300. Cross your fingers!!!!
