usually don't go for the faded stuff but this one has faded to such a perfect 70s-kitchen green that I can't resist it. The blue peeking through is awesome.

I had a refrigerator that colour when I got married in 1969.
Brings back old memories.

Exactly! My Grandmom's whole kitchen was almost that color,
I sat and wondered where I knew it from...

I really like the colours used in the 60s on loads of appliances, cars etc....

in general I like things pre-1980s...

AB-SO-LUTE-LY! I almost hate the designs they come up with these days,
but I noticed there's kind of a retro boom happening right now, and it's kind
of easy to be "en vogue" by just wearing my old leather jackets and strapping
on an old offset, making me look just like an MTV hipster, ha ha.

Those are so awesome. The drummer in my old band was an 1800 nut. He had a beautiful mustard yellow one, a '72 IIRC. He was 6'5" tall and it was the funniest thing.
