    Never ever seen one. I have seen them as part of a rear view mirror, but not stand alone.

    Just when you think you've seen everything . . .
    :rolleyes:

    Haven't seen those before. Looks like a 40's or 50's GM dealer installed accessory, kind of like the comp***es they used to sell. But I'd think these would be considerably more rare, considering that they were probably easily vandalized. A lot of them probably ended up broken off and laying in the street next to the cars they had been installed on.

    Nice find!
    :cool:

    Maybe GM once made commercial freezers or fridges, like Nash / Kelvinator, and International?
