I've been in the process looking for a cheap chest freezer to build a keezer. I was browsing Craigslist and found an ad for a commercial True TDD-2 kegerator. From the photos looked to be in good condition and ad said it runs fine. Went out to look at it and everything ran fine, temp was at 35 degrees in the cooler when I checked it out. Some minor rusting around the base, scuffs on the exterior, and it looked like the kegerator hadn't been used in some time so there was some corrosion spots on the inside and overall it was quite filthy. I noticed there were 2 keg taps with attached to old gas/bev lines in the inside, along with a CO2 regulator, empty CO2 tank,3 way diffuser, and 4 tap faucets attached to the towers. Guy who was selling it got it on auction with some other pieces of shop equipment and didn't know what he had and was asking for $700. I asked if he'd take $500 and he gave me the whole deal on the spot for $500. I've got the whole thing at the moment and am working on touching it up (removing some corroded items, deep cleaning, new lines, re-painting). Pretty excited to score this but am dreading having to move this down to my basement (300 lbs). I'll be removing the stand up fridge I have in my brewing room and placing this in there (old fridge will go into the unfinished side of the basement). I haven't seen many posts on these systems, so once I get it up and running and cleaned up, I'll post some photos. Next post is a couple of photos that show it before I started working on it.
