Tourist Kitchenette
Didn’t take me long to say yes. Always wanted one as I thought they were practical and cool looking. Doesn’t fit on the running board but I can use my trunk rack.

Re: Tourist Kitchenette
Does anyone have pictures of one of these in use? It would be pretty cool to see those.

Re: Tourist Kitchenette
I am thinking about stripping the old/new paint off next year for a repaint/resto. I know a liquid stripper will keep the Lead encapsulated but if I have to use a portable blaster anything I should know about when it comes to blasting Galvanized metal? I am looking on the Model T forum at an old thread where someone was restoring his Kitchenette. He has posted on making the font for the lettering.

Re: Tourist Kitchenette
I will rebuild the spigot but not thrilled about drinking water from the water tank. Food one thing-water something else.

Re: Tourist Kitchenette
Verns suggestion of oven cleaner is a good one. I buy mine at the dollar store.
Works well on tubs and showers too! |

They stopped using lead in paint about 50 years ago. You can get a test kit at the local paint store to see if yours has paint with lead in it. If it does I'd go with the liquid stripper. |

Re: Tourist Kitchenette
Along the way, I collected a couple of items related to the Tourist Kitchenette. The photos below are copies of an original sales literature and the patent application, along with a photo of one offered for sale on eBay.

Re: Tourist Kitchenette
Vern thank you for that. The wife would like to get a period flyer for it now. I will post pics as I go along next year.
