Saw this cooler on craigslist last week. Located 4 hours north of where I live. Owner just happened to be traveling to Oakland ca on business and agreed to bring it with him. Picked it up this morning. Needs a full on restoration but heck for what I paid it was a no brainer. Lid is toast but body is solid. Will need a new everything but will make a great resto project.
I had no idea that these coolers were this small.
Thanks for all your help Eric!!!!!

Awesome! Keep us posted on the restoration... Can't believe with the internet and all the info out there that it was sent to a scrap yard.
Glad the owner was smart enough to post it for sale... Nice save for sure!

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |
