Just thought I would share a few pictures of my Vernor's cooler , there are a few
more things that need to be done to it like the white around the Vernors and few other things
have to be painted.
Sorry this was taken with my Cell phone and i tried to do this with my cell and it would not go though
so I sent the picture to my computer and had to down size it a ton but if you go to my face book page
custom soda works you can see a better picture.

Nice... You doing the lids in green?... Do you have casters for it? I posted under the Double Cola Quikold
the place where I got the little chromed fender style casters. Looks great so far!

Here it is: The casters I have are from www.castercity.com chromed covered caster part number # FEH-RD2XF-GR2 with corner brackets that need to be grind/filed down to fit in the inside base corners - part number # MB90 that is what I used on my Nichol Kola... the chrome fender looks are close (better cause they're chrome) to what was used orginally and help dress up the bottom without going over board. |

So - Is the burly Vernor's guy painted on or is it a decal? I notice it was not in the first set of pics and you mentioned a few more things for the painter.
Either way, very nice job! Love the colors!

Just posting a update my S&S 1400 Vernor's cooler is done new tank , had a problem finding the right gasket Thanks to Janet for sending the quickold gasket out so quick it just was not what was needed , I did end up just buy some long rubber gasket material to make what I needed it was the upside down L shape. Well here is the cooler . I've listed it for sale and it is going into a antique mall tomorrow . Can't keep them all found a machine I may want to get ( we will see if the price is right)  |

Is that the cooler that was in Ohio (northern - by Lake Erie) that I pointed out to you Pat? I think it was you that got it?
Regardless - It looks great! I really like that yellow green combination.

it was wet sanded down then cleared the Vernor's gnome was painted with one shot and that was not cleared over my painter
was not to keen on clearing over that.
Tim there is a antique mall in Williamston I'm working with he is doing a man cave room and wants cool stuff in there, goes in there Monday morning.
plus we worked out a deal on what his take isgoing to be.
