To make a long story short-
I got screwed on an eBay V56 and had a rust bucket shipped to Steve Jebb for restoration.
I picked up an incomplete V56 in LA later and took it up to The Soda Jerk Works outside of Fresno.
When I picked up the 2nd 56, I also picked up this cool little Atlas DP cooler.

It is like a Half Junior in size - measures 21" x 14" x 13.5".
There are no hinges for the top - it just rests on the gasket.
There are handles on each side and a handle on the lid.
Well he just sent me a couple of pics of it restored.
I am psyched - Enjoy!

Thanks guys!!
The DP cooler is pretty unique - I have never seen another like it.
Even the sign is a little different that the other brick logo signs.
It had a tag on the back that said Atlas Metal Works - Dallas Texas.
There was no model number - just a serial number.
The guy had tore it apart - cut the drain tube, etc. - but it was all there.
I jumped all over it for $50.
