Wrong link, surely?

I'm sure if he's coming from the states there maybe a few other electrical items he may want to bring over.
I'd hardly think you would get a new compressor fitted for less but if you were to take in the overall running cost of new v old then certainly it would and would also be converted to 240v
You are right, I had not realised how much the price of site transformers has dropped. But compressor swop out is an option, especially if a refrigeration technician can be found to fit a second-hand compressor.
I know I'm derailing this thread now, but I've found it interesting, watching people who are spending £300 plus on kit for a keezer or kegerator but baulking at buying a new freezer or fridge - yes you can get old freezers for free on gumtree etc but unless it is well rated you'll be spending more on electricity if you run it for a couple of years+.
There's plenty of air con services that could do but then it has lost its authentic appeal to being a complete genuine working artifact from that era.
