[VAL] old frigs and some info on Armstrong AC



Today my wife and I purchased a 1969 20' Sabre that we have been looking 
at for about 5 years. It was a long and slow process getting it bought so 
I was pleased to bring it home and start the cleaning and fixing process. 
We hope to camp in it yet this summer. There are two things that came up 
with this purchase today. 
   The first is that the frig has been closed and messy for about 18 years. 
What would be a good way to clean it and de-odorize it (not that it had a 
particular odor, I was trying to keep a distance when I opened it).
   The second is that in the envelope of information the seller passed on 
to me there was a Owner's Maintenance Guide # TR25-10 for the Armstrong AC 
unit. It is 19 pages and I will look into scanning it or what ever is there 
is interest in such a thing.
   Now, off the the shower and bed, tomorrow I will begin cleaning like a 
mad man. It is amazing how much dirt and dead bugs you can pack into a 20 
foot trailer.
