Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
My late 1950s era freezer has been in the garage for 20 years. It looks almost new and has had no problems.
I suggest that if your repair goes south you may wish to consider a VERY old replacement.
I don't view myself as it's owner. I'm simply the caretaker for the next generation.
I'm too frugal to buy a new fridge for the garage, used is just fine. My current garage fridge was free from a friend that upgraded his kitchen.
