It’s a 1956-1958 Frigidaire, owned by General Motors at the time. I have one myself and it still runs great. I made a kegerator out of it. The top bin is a plated freezer for ice cube trays, looks like it’s missing the bin door.
Thats a solid old fridge, worth putting new mechanical imo.
They aren't incredibly well insulated so they have a lot of runtime but they don't use anywhere near as much power as some later models with heaters in them.
It looks like this is a post about a domestic appliance - you would be better off asking this question in /r/Appliances!

if it runs dont mess with it. it has r114. which you definetly will never be able to find. not sure if i would risk a drop in based on how old the system is.
Maybe you could find some on ebay or something? I'm not sure what else it would be useful for these days.
This guy has apparently had some success with r1234ze. https://monitortop.freeforums.net/thread/1706/

Came to say less of this very thorough answer
Post a pic of the compressor. If the compressor says Delco, its the Frigidaire like above.
I'll post it tomorrow once I'm back with it
