Collection of late 1950's GE appliances - wall hung refrigerator, wall oven, cooktop with remote control - and late 1980's GE 1200 dishwasher.  They collectively look to be in rough shape, have to wonder if some pieces were under water after Katrina.

Yes kinda rough for sure.... The fridge is throwing me - the white interior suggests either the first 1955 models or last 1959 and 1960 models but the grille covering the compressor is not like anything I've seen in other wall refrigerators. 

 

That 'worked when removed in 2011' is a bad sign... it translates to "probably doesn't work but that's not our problem"

By the looks of the DW console and trim,

my guess is it was in the Katrina flood.

Sadly those dw consoles had so many little grooves and voids in that them are difficult to keep clean.

Even if these survived Katrina, due to the amount of humidity down here, they could still have rusted if they would have been kept somewhere not air conditioned.

Pink GE Wall Refrigerator

The grille on the ref is the later style grille so this one is closer to a 1960 model.

 

Unfortunately they are all rough good for parts at best, That ref would need David to restore it along with several grand.

I had no idea - several thousand to restore? I'm glad I don't lust too much, but it's a nice set. I know, pink - not exactly a big following. Here's another look, to remind newcomers, David and money for these:
