[QUOTE="dwyoder, post: 400990, member: 8565"]My wife's grandmother had a store which closed in the early 1970's.

They said we could have it for a donation, so we did, and brought the thing home. Particulars: Quikold Model 1400WD LxWxH: 44x26x34 Condition: Some rust spots coming through enamel. No rust spots are all the way through the panels. The front bottom panel, kick plate (?), is slightly bent. The top metal is in pretty decent condition. The refrigerator actually appears to work. Questions: Value in current condition. Value in restored condition. Approximate restoration cost. Where to have it restored in central PA. Pics are attached.[/QUOTE]
