Coca Cola looks like it's decaled and not embossed.

Title: Re: Coca-cola Victor grill cooler Post by: memorylane on January 05, 2014, 01:42:26 pm Hey guys this belongs to a good friend of mine and he is not saying it is the real deal but I'll tell you that I have seen it in person and it is a very nice piece and he is not asking 50K for it. He has been in the business longer than most of us by a long shot. He did this for himself several years ago as his own personal piece but I be-leave health reasons are why he might be selling it. It ranks high on the Cool factor and I was impressed when I saw it for the first time about 4 or 5 years ago. Just saying he's a good guy and not someone that would try and rip someone off, these are good people. I have bought thousands of dollars worth of machines in the past from him and everything has always been what he said it was.

Title: Re: Coca-cola Victor grill cooler Post by: mznb1u on January 06, 2014, 08:56:49 pm A fantasy piece no doubt. But I like the addition of the soda/beer fountain! Would like to have something like that for my basement bar especially it that tap will accommodate a keg of my favorite barley based liquid. It will be interesting to watch this one. I do agree that the post should make it more clear that this is a fantasy piece but if you are looking for a real Victor Cooler Grille and know the value/rarity of the item, you better know what the real thing looks like!

I was thinking about going for this item but after communicating with the seller and finding out that the reserve was set at $10k, I did not bother. Very cool fantasy piece, just not $10k cool! I sure hope the people bidding on this cooler know that it is a fantasy piece and not a real Victor Cooler Grill.
