Title: Quikold Standard Swirl
Post by: BONOVOX on November 15, 2014, 04:37:01 pm
Although I wasn't able to go to the Chicago show this weekend, I was able to score this cooler from Ebay (only one other bidder and I got it for 102.50... I think I did ok on it)

Picked it up today, and just added it to the collection lol

Still learning on the all the quikolds that were made, but I think this one is a seldom seen version with the Pepsi Swirl on the front, and non embossed sides (instead of the typical Quikold embossed sides of ICE COLD etc....

It's been a quikold year for me that's for sure!

Nice score.... just got back from the show.... no quikolds for me... Just cold  :down:
Brenda gets the Dealer With The Most Round Tops Award... I think she did pretty good at least I hope she did.
Was good seeing everyone.

Nice buy, definitely a rare one, the lids alone are worth that price! Did they come with the cooler? Or extras you had lying around?

No... it didn't come with the lids... I took that off a Pepsi Quikold just to have it for the picture.

I still think for a 100 bucks plus a nice drive by myself to pick it up is a good deal.... now comes the part of getting it restored lol
