So the time has come to clean out the garage of projects that I will not have the time to accomplish in the near future. I am also looking to finish my 1940 ford coupe, I would like to take the fam for some rides around the mountains. Had some great plans for this one as it is a super rare beast and in fairly good shape.
Not sure what it is actually worth so feel free to make me an offer. I will try to link the thread from the DR section. If that doesn't work then you can see the pics of it there.

It is in pretty good shape, porcelain is in great shape with one chip about 2in long in the bottom of the lower door and the lower plate is in need of repair from sitting on the floor. It sat on a concrete floor when I came across it, there is a little dry rot in the base. Probably limited to 3 inches from the bottom.
All of the shelves seem to be there
Doors all work well and do not sag. Hardware is all there and working.
No legs, I have it on a movers dolly presently.
I did purchase a gauge and fill kit to check the So2, (it is definitely So2). Its been a while but I think it had around 20psi. The heater works, I pulled it and installed a new wire lead. I had it freezing once, but since then have not had any luck (I haven't had much time to play with it though). Not sure if it is low on refrigerant, it could be. I was never positive that the float was working correctly as I couldn't find a powerful enough magnet. I did back out the float hold down needle and if I remember correctly that is when I managed to get it to cool.
As you can tell I am not on the forum very often so you can reach me at willymeister@Hotmail.com I will be checking the forum a little more often too.
I will offer this to the forum first, I will probably start actively advertising in another week or two.
Thanks
Bill
