Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: mack65az on August 09, 2013, 09:31:28 pm Great either way!
Not like it's worth thousands. I would restore. Looks great now, would look awesome restored! Just an opinion though. Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: krovel on August 09, 2013, 09:55:42 pm great find!!!! complete with sandwich tray. I cant read on there is it a progress cooler?
i'm sure others will chime in but i'd find out how much it's worth. it might devalue it if you fix it up. But, if you think you might just hold onto it, then fix that thing up!!! kevin Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: cohammer on August 09, 2013, 11:25:15 pm Yes it is a progress cooler , I know it is not worth much but I only gave $50 for it .
Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: georgescustompaint on August 10, 2013, 07:19:11 am Can't go wrong for $50.
How's the bottom? any rust? Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: rayg on August 10, 2013, 12:03:41 pm Looks good, a great deal for $50!
Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: Kilroy on August 10, 2013, 12:42:23 pm I'll say, I paid 65 without the tray.
Mine is a little worn like yours, but I plan to bring it back Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: cohammer on August 10, 2013, 05:31:06 pm No rust at all on bottom , the sad part is the usual paint loss due to tossing it around in storage.
Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: Bigfoot on August 12, 2013, 06:52:01 pm Great find. I'd keep it original.
Title: Re: RC cooler Post by: aspbear on August 12, 2013, 09:07:38 pm Saw one at an auction last month sale for $240.00. Not saying that is the going price but 50 dollars excellent deal. If I was keeping it I would paint and polish, if I was going to sale it I would leave it like it is.
