To get a few more hours at work while during the school year i offered to clean up some the old buildings on the property.
I came across two older fridges. One a hot point and the other an admiral. They are both built like the mini fridges of today as in they just have one compartment, and no separate freezer section.
When i saw the Hotpoint i immediately thought Kegerator! But it is old, and probably has quite a few years on it by now. The admiral in newer, and not as cool looking but probably more reliable.
As mentioned, i am in college, and dont have the funds to restore or do a fancy build... at this point in time, but im sure i will give it the love it needs once i graduate.
The Admiral works, and is currently plugged in and running. And also has about 8-10 in of ice built up on the coils.
The Hotpoint also works, i plugged it in while i was there one day and the coils were frosty a little while later. It also is on R-12 not the newer stuff (134a i believe).
The Admiral would fit better in my garage, but the Hotpoint would look much better.
I asked about the Hotpoint, boss said if i could remove it i could have it. I would assume the same goes for the Admiral.
Any info about either of these fridges is desired, like what year they might be, how reliable ect. also opinions or ideas are welcomed and thanks for helping me decide.

Admiral Pictures are first, then the Hotpoint ones.
