Title: So you are looking for some Rusty Gold!!! Quikold Jr. Post by: TheGarbageHunter on February 19, 2014, 06:19:36 pm Saw this cooler on craigslist last week. Located 4 hours north of where I live. Owner just happened to be traveling to Oakland ca on business and agreed to bring it with him. Picked it up this morning. Needs a full on restoration but heck for what I paid it was a no brainer. Lid is toast but body is solid. Will need a new everything but will make a great resto project.
I had no idea that these coolers were this small. Thanks for all your help Eric!!!!! Title: Re: picked up some true rusty gold!!! quikold jr. Post by: Ltransam on February 19, 2014, 06:32:17 pm :needphotos:
