Title: Coke Standard Cooler (Cavalier?)
Post by: jimstl99 on August 17, 2011, 11:50:10 am
Hello everyone. I have a Coca Cola standard cooler here which I believe is a Cavalier model. Please correct me if I am wrong. It has been refurbushed using very high quality automotive paints and the lettering is all hand painted.

Any guestimates on value?

BTW, I do not have the top and am holding out until I find an original with the raised embossed letters. If you have one of those, please let me know.

Thanks all.

Cheers.

Jim

I have never seen repro. Lids WITH embossing....I would hold out for the real thing. They show up on eBay once in a while.

The standard is a two piece lid there are 3  on ebay right now but I think there for the Master size for $200 each.

Look at sellers other items on his post.

Also no one remakes the embossed covers, I have a standard embossed set, but not for sale at this time, because I am looking for the cooler and if I find one usually the covers are gone or totally rusted out.
