I like how it looks, here's the description:
VINTAGE!!! Rare, 1964 Whirlpool refrigerator with bottom freezer. Model #ELB-19MM. Color - retro brown. Contains original shelving and bins, rotating main shelf, cheese and butter storage, ice cube holder and freezer rack. Only pieces missing are the original bottom shelf, which I replaced with metal wire rack, and original ice cube maker. Fridge works great. Freezer has a small drip that creates ice buildup over a period of 2 weeks or so. CLICK HERE TO GO TO PhilR's LINK on Albany Craigslist |

In other words, the heater under the freezer floor (or trough) that routes defrost water to the drain no longer works.
I've had experience with a couple of Coldspot models from earlier in the '60s and they both had this problem. I'm sure the factory repair assembly has been NLA for a few decades.
That bottom shelf in the fridge would be tough to locate as well.
Too bad. It's a rare and beautiful fridge, even though it's coppertone.
