1960 Vintage Hobart 3- Door Avocado Green Commercial Refrigerator $300 Listed a day ago (4/30/23) in Pilot Grove, MO A true 1960's Vintage Avocado Green Hobart 3- Door Commercial Refrigerator. We used it for years as a refrigerator, but... the compressor works, but needs new Freon, but it's the old Freon so can't be refilled. We have since put a small individual refrigerator in the center shelf and use the two sides doors as a truly one-of-a-kind unique show cabinet. It's heavy, but we do have double doors that you will be able to roll the refrigerator out of with no issues. You load on a trailer. CLICK HERE TO GO TO scoots's LINK |

Actually, you can buy R-12 on eBay, butcha have to find the leak. |

Beautiful! And they are wrong that it can't be "refilled." Fix the leak and use any of the R12 alternatives out there. |

While perhaps not in avocado Hobart Q3 three door fridge (and or freezers) are out there common enough. One thing keeps popping up with older units however "needs" or "low on" Freon.
