picked up a 1979 32’ downeaster about a month ago and slowly been replacing things as i go. right now ive been using a vevor dual zone fridge/freezer 12volt cooler but id like to repair the top loader fridge that the boat originally had.

the problem being when i bought the boat every piece of the fridges cooling system had already been removed, what kind of compressor/cooling system replacement have yall used. Honestly id prefer it to be a freezer over fridge since i eat more meat and frozen foods than regular fridge foods.

Is it even worth replacing the missing components or should i just turn the old fridge compartment into some kind of storage area?
