Lost in the 60's

I was trying to assist a member in locating a Class C with an outdoor kitchen. I stumbled across the Freelander 32DS and about fainted when I saw the fridge. What the H are they thinking? My grandmothers 1964 mobile home had a fridge that color.

Are you sure that wasn't the clear plastic they shrink onto a stainless steel appliance to avoid scratches. Just bought a new counter top ice maker and when I took it out of the box it was the same blue. I thought...I didn't order blue! and then realized you have to peel it off. I hope that what it is anyway!

Oh, yeah. No thing/idea/color/fabric 50 years old should ever be used again. If it's more than 6 months old it's gotta be changed. All that old school cr*p is just that - - - cr*p. /s


PS - Bob is probably 100% correct.

That floor could sure use some orange/green/brown full shag carpet I’m thinking.

Here is another one I found with better detail on the side of the fridge. Why would the sides be wrapped in plastic also? However, I did find one that is silver that has some blue wrap left on the handles so I guess I was jumping to conclusions. Sure got my attention.

Don’t be too hard on the owner. I’ve been in homes where they left the blue film on their appliances. I didn’t have the heart to tell them.

Same thing in reverse here... Wife wanted a scratch & dent discount on a fridge freeze because some of the blue on the door had been pulled off! I quietly slipped away and left the salesman to look at the Audio/Video selection! I wasn't going to tell her.
