Title: Need help with identification of this cooler
Post by: badgas on May 05, 2012, 11:38:23 pm
Hello all,

My first post here, but not a newby to collecting.  I mainly spend my time on vintage vehicle forums and oldgas.com.  I've decided to sell a few of my projects and this is one of them.  I would like to know what brand/model it is and what year(s) produced?

Thanks, Ilya

Thanks for the info, but it has a lot of paint and dirt that needs to be removed.  Whereabout inside the tub would it be stamped?  That help me narrow down the area to clean.

date should be  a few inches down from top and out from side in the corner of tub.
