Hi All, Seems the boat is never "done".....I read a recent thread here on older iceboxes and the benefit of improved insulation, and wonder about my '85. As other work gets done, the ice box has moved up the project list a bit.
I replaced the gasket and the manual drain pump, and will need to tighten the lid screws to address wear/lid wobble, (might need screw holes filled) and replace the rusting and now detached wire basket/shelf inside. For sure the small gap between the two lid sections could be sealed somehow, and I will cut a closed-cell foam "blanket" to cover the top. This should help deal with the gap as well as insulate a bit better. After that, the work gets more invasive as the insulated (we hope) cavities are quite difficult to access. Has anyone tackled a 33-2 ice box? I am wondering mostly about the amount of insulation and whether it was installed effectively. Any thoughts or advice would be much appreciated!
