 Any my ideas on what model this is. It is definitely a Canadian model and probably has shelves in the door. Cabinet very similar to my AK1 but I have no idea what the cooling unit is. |

If I'm not mistaken that is one of the GE "flat tops" that was non hermetic. I believe they had a belt drive rotary compressor that used SO2. They were the cheap model. I wonder if it still has its guts?

I don't know what refrigerating machine is on it but it looks way to short to have a belt drive unit in there. Although I can't say I am familiar with the unit ckfan is referring to.

Here is what I was talking about. If you look in the bottom right corner of this CA ad you will see the cheaply priced GE of the time. I think it is the same fridge. The only thing that looks different is the top and the legs but that could be because it is a Canadian model.

It's definitely from the early CA era as it looks like the same control cover plate as the CA form A.

The one I posted has a much deeper space for the compressor unit. |

All the space behind the control appears to be the engine room. The inside tub is just a bit higher than the door, I think |

Allan,
You'll have to buy it and let us know when it arrives.

Those legs look similar to GE's Canadian AK series, no?

Strange looking cover on top, wish we had more pics. |

Well, Next I'm waiting to find out it has a scotch yoke compressor that runs methyl formate.  |
