check out my kegerator.
Not too hard too do if you have an old refrigerator you don't care about. The next step is to plumb tap into door. This old fridge had a bad evap fan wich is only a 20 replacement part. Grainger has a universal motor you buy with all the mounts already on it.
The refrigerant used is 134a even though it is a r12 unit. This is accomplished by using piercing valve to go into low side pipe off compressor. That and some jb weld on a broken high side line and viola! kegerator.
THis is not typical of an old broke fridge...usually the compressor burns out if it lost its gas while running. This one lost its gas while sitting outside over the years.
