Just got a 1966 SS. Needs a toilet and a fridge. I have no idea where to look. Any info would be appreciated.

Don't be too quick to replace the fridge.

If the box is in decent condition, the rest of the parts can be repaired or replaced, even the cooling unit on the back can be replaced. A new one can be made even if not in stock at the maker.

Several companies make new cooling units for obsolete fridges.

Replacement of a cooling unit, if needed, is simple. Most of the job is removing the fridge from its alcove and putting it back, which you have to do to put a new fridge in anyway.

So if you don't just have to have the latest electronic icemaker'ed fridge, keep the old one.
