Was there ever any discussion about the cargo door handles? standard handle is removed. some sort of standard fridge door mechanism?


I seem to remember talking about that. There are pictures on the site showing the inside of one - they were all insulated and had compressors to keep it cool, so the locking handle makes sense. I would bet that's why they were all parked out in front of Frigidaire. They probably did the conversions.

Something odd about the high roofs in the back. Not the right shape. Not tall enough or is it the distance that makes them look weird.
