$400 isn't horrible for something so hard to find these days…I like my '63 version of this better, but still!!

My cousin Mary Frances had one like that, except less chrome trim. The last time I saw it, it was in their garage. She's deceased, but her husband may still have it. |

These hamper door models were beautiful refrigerators but I do remember many of them coming in new or near-new for service. The ad does sound "iffy" as far as it working properly. The cold control set on 3 is not a good sign. Frigidaire used the A B C 1 2 3 control for many many years. 1 was the normal operating temperature.
As a teenager I did not do any repairs on refrigeration, but I do remember one of these refrigerators in yellow that I went along with as a helper when it was returned to the customer after service. When we took the refrigerator into the "kind of weird" house, the kitchen had a dirt floor! It was hard and had been swept many times so it was shiny, but it was dirt. I thought that it was very strange to see an expensive Custom Imperial Frigidaire sitting on a dirt floor. The crazy things I remember from when I was young... |

Fabulous! Of course I need a right swing door which is never the case 😕 and we are going to have to reconfigure cabinets above to get some room for anything over 63" I think it is. Everything in that house is for very specific sized appliances which are no longer that small. Hence the dilemma with front load washers we're having.
