Thanks for sharing that with us. Very nice! You are sure fortunate to get all the parts, as said. That's the hardest part of getting great restorable examples. I was wondering about the gasket from the beginning of the video! That's quite ingenious how they adapted the wide Frigidaire gasket with the metal pole.

Had a customer (hvac) and every year for annual service you would go down into the basement ans see his furnace was a different color. One year it was Kawasaki Racing green, next year was Fire engine red. All paint was Emron air craft paint. I know you cant do enamel to change color but it be cool to try. Nice video's

I have a beautiful 56 FoodArama, the fat modern gasket that keeps the cold in, puts pressure on the door handles. The door handles get stuck closed and or eventually fall apart. So currently I'm only using my FoodArama for paper product storage. Can you recommend a magnetic gasket so I can use my FoodArama again?

This is very beautiful. This is back when they made things that were very impressive, and built to last. I like the design with the pull out shelves. Whoever had it took very good care of it. Are you selling it or keeping it. I think you said it was going to a museum type place. Hopefully it will last another 60 years

Can anybody find for me a vintage refrigerator that had a door within the door? No glass but a small one foot cutout with a small handle on the outside of the refrigerator door. I remember seeing it at an estate sale once and thought "Samsung your a little behind". Sadly I forgot the maker. But I was proud America thought about that first.
