Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: iggybu on July 10, 2013, 07:01:31 pm Cool. Thanks for the heads up. I'll offer maybe $60? Luckily he's only a couple miles away so I don't have to go very far.
Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: johnieG on July 10, 2013, 08:54:22 pm This sure looks like an original progress cooler to me :Oo:, cold galvanized liner, the lid handle & bottle opener looks to be OEM, ( maybe the copy right mark under the tail end of the "Coca~Cola" ? unless they ran a batch of them on the original die-set. In any case, I agree that the dent is a big negative price-wise.
Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: halehouse on July 10, 2013, 10:46:38 pm That "Drink" font and the Trademark Registered "R" = repro.
$60 might not be bad.

I wasn't sure, nice looking repop (other than the dent) Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: MoonDawg on July 11, 2013, 07:42:33 am I agree with Johnie, that galvanized liner gives it a much more original look but I think the original lowboy also had a drain.
Anyway, for under a hundred bucks you get a cooler that your not afraid to use daily. Go for it! Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: krovel on July 11, 2013, 02:43:36 pm sorry total newbie here.
how does the drink font give it away?? trying to learn a few things so my friends will think i'm smart :tounge: thanks kevin Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: Kilroy on July 11, 2013, 03:05:03 pm Here is n original
"Drink" is a smaller font size, and the Registered Trademark symbol ( R in a circle) was not on the original cooler. Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: Bigfoot on July 11, 2013, 08:10:08 pm Is the Repop a decal or embossed?
Title: Re: Reissue coke cooler price check please Post by: iggybu on July 11, 2013, 09:36:14 pm Got it for $60
It is a repop. Embossed and says 2001 coca cola co on it.... Thanks for the help guys! And apparently the orchird supply hardware stores had repo 6pack coolers for about $60. All sold out but I called one near me and they said to check back in a couple weeks. They might've ordered more. This is SoCal so check yours near you.
