That looks pretty good considering its age.

Great work! It's interesting that it is stamped HT67 on the insulation, wasn't the cabinet designated HT70? What's the difference in .3 cubic feet

What's the difference in .3 cubic feet Apparently even in those days they had "rating inflation". The cabinet was 7 cubic feet. .3 cubic feet of that were insulation however--. *casual whistling*

Your whole cabinet and underside of compressor looks good it must have been kept in a dry environment. I've seen a lot worse some I even own .

It was rescued in Utah. Now lives in Idaho. Both are very dry.

Question for the monitor gods. I noticed the retention screw on the relay cover and the tab on the relay cover are drilled. My experience in aviation would lead me to believe it was for safety/lock wire. I, however, believe it was for some kind of safety or Quality assurance seal. Anyone have information?

They left the factory with the control sealed. I am sure we have seen a pic or two on the forum of a factory seal still on the control but I don't have a clue what thread. Most of the ones we have found so many decades latter were already missing the seal.

Thanks for the confirmation Intel. Not a big deal but would be cool to be able to reproduce for that Uber detailed look.

Timeswelding has a DR35 that has a lead seal with the GE logo in the top of the float charge port. I believe I've also seen a machine with a tall control that had a similar lead seal with wire tied in a loop going through the bolt hole similar to what you have.

The DR3B that Travis adopted from me has the lead seal on the tall control. I had to cut the wire to repair the damaged control, but it is still there.

My guess is it's so they know if someone has tampered with it. Like your electric meter on your house. I guess because they were under warranty.
