Default Vintage Refridgerator Repair in East Central WI?

I have a vintage Coldspot refridgerator, circa 1940's that has been working flawlessly for years. We initally had it as a beverage fridge in the basement, but when we moved, it went into the attached garage. It finally stopped cooling. Compressor still runs.

I was referred to a guy in New Holstein, but after dragging the fridge up to his shop and having it sit there for two months, he now calls and says he cant look at it until FEBRUARY 2011!!!

So, he is losing any future business.


Anyone know of anyone in east central WI that can repair and maybe upgrade the cooling unit to keep the retro fridge running and cooling?

Thank you in advance.

Actually,I have been doing refrigeration since 1974 and have to tell you that what you are wanting a upgrade would be very very costly,around $700 and their are not too many tech's that would even know how to do it!
