Speedway Ron has now developed an intense need to acquire every small appliance ever made that was recessed directly into the wall. To go with all his steel kitchens and now, he tells me, 4 vintage refrigerators in his possession:

<p><strong>Speedway Ron has now developed an intense need to acquire every small appliance ever made that was recessed directly into the wall. </strong>To go with all his steel kitchens and now, he tells me, 4 vintage refrigerators in his possession:</p>
<blockquote><p>Pam, again I blame you&#8230;I was pretty happy living my life and not knowing that Chambers ever made a full copper stove in the late 1950&#8217;s.  Now I know it&#8217;s out there and I want one.  Dare I say, that I might even NEED one.  So I got to looking and I think I&#8217;ve found a full copper Chambers kitchen and it also has a stainless Hotpoint fridge in it.  How cool would that be?  I do think I need to try to buy it.</p>
<p>That would make four fridges that I don&#8217;t want to sell though.  That&#8217;s a lot.  Someday this will all be worth something right!!??   hehe&#8230; Ron</p></blockquote>
<p>Read on for more &#8211; including a recessed Modern Maid wall toaster! <span id="more-5508"></span>Ron&#8217;s happy obsession also now extends to recessed appliances, he tells me.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s my Sunbeam posts:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://retrorenovation.com/2008/09/17/another-delicious-vintage-system-by-sunbeam-to-organize-your-appliances/">Sunbeam steel appliance cabinet appliance center</a></li>
<li><a href="../2008/02/19/happy-birthday-to-me-happy-birthday-to-me/">Happy birthday to me &#8211; my Sunbeam birthday present!</a></li>
<li><a href="../2008/05/15/50s-kitchen-another-appliance-center-design/">And this Westinghouse model. </a></li>
</ul>
<p>He&#8217;s refused to pay $255 on ebay for this Modern Maid toaster that recesses and pulls out of the wall:</p>

<p>And now &#8211; I am on the lookout for other appliances to torture him with. Isn&#8217;t this 1961 recessed dishwasher incredible? Jane Jetson, eat your heart out&#8230;Ron, try not to!</p>
