Title: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 04, 2015, 10:05:11 am Does anyone know the make/model and or value of this cooler? I haven't seen this particular model before. Thanks for your help! :help:
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Slider-Bob on March 04, 2015, 10:21:01 am Hard to tell by the pic, but my guess is its a quikold standard.
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 04, 2015, 10:38:32 am The front of it has a recessed opener and what looks like a hole for an empty cap catcher drawer.
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Slapshot42 on March 04, 2015, 10:48:12 am I would agree looks like a Quickold or a S&S...
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Eric on March 04, 2015, 10:53:01 am I don't think it's a Quikold.. If that is a seam running up the end the side seams aren't like that, the Quikold ends bolt on and the seam is on the front.
The tub along the top edge doesn't look right either. And all my cooler have 4 holes in the hinges not 6... Hhhmmm but the embossing looks pretty close. I would like to see the lids from the top and the base... Canada colors may be a cooler from up North... Great looking cooler any other pictures? Would love to see how the front is embossed... Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 04, 2015, 11:14:51 am Here's another shot.
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Eric on March 04, 2015, 12:28:56 pm I've seen these little repro signs on ebay and always wondered if that cooler was real or made up for the sake of the sign...
I think this cooler is the one on these signs... I've never seen one like this one. Awesome! Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: tkaz on March 04, 2015, 12:38:45 pm Maybe an unknown Kelvinator? They have the interior bottle opener and that side trim that's in the Pepsi sign http://soda-machines.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=176&Itemid=14
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: ld26 on March 04, 2015, 07:12:34 pm One of these popped up by me a while back, not sure of brand but do know it's about the same size as a master cooler rather than a standard, if you have the space I think it's cool
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Slapshot42 on March 05, 2015, 12:48:13 am Maybe an unknown Kelvinator? They have the interior bottle opener and that side trim that's in the Pepsi sign http://soda-machines.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=176&Itemid=14 I was thinking that later today I had a friend that had a similar one that was a RC! Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Kilroy on March 05, 2015, 07:05:47 am Is "buvez" embossed? Would'nt take but a vinyl "Drink" to rpelace it.
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: SIGNGUY on March 05, 2015, 09:14:43 am Is "buvez" embossed? Would'nt take but a vinyl "Drink" to rpelace it. does not look embossed to me. would be and easy conversion to "Drink" I'd think.Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Kilroy on March 05, 2015, 10:53:05 am John,
That's exacly what I was thinking. Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Eric on March 06, 2015, 09:33:15 am So... Do you own this cooler or are you buying this cooler... Good Luck if you're buying.
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 06, 2015, 09:41:20 pm Yes, I pick it up Monday.
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: Jared on March 07, 2015, 01:46:09 pm Congratulations are you going to restore it?
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: collecture on March 09, 2015, 08:48:24 am I was thinking that later today..... Just exactly when is that - j/k Jared :tounge: I vote Kelvinator. The trim that wraps around the corners is very similar. Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 09, 2015, 03:32:07 pm Congratulations are you going to restore it? I'm still trying to decide. I'll post some pictures later this evening, but it's in great shape as-is. Just some slight surface rust. Even has the original casters. Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 11, 2015, 09:52:58 am Here are some pics of the cooler and measurements. If anyone is interested, I'd be willing to part with it, so PM me.
42" Wide/Long 36" High 25 1/2" Deep Weight: 178 lbs Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 11, 2015, 09:54:58 am The Pepsi logos are all embossed, and everything else is painted on. All rust is slight surface rust and everything is solid. Great cooler imo.
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: ld26 on March 11, 2015, 07:26:34 pm Anything on it that would identify a brand?
Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: bredfern on March 12, 2015, 11:47:58 am Anything on it that would identify a brand? Unfortunately, nothing at all. It's still a mystery. :Oo: Title: Re: HELP ID - French Pepsi Double Dot Cooler Post by: coinopgullwing on March 12, 2015, 02:43:18 pm My guess,would be that it is made by Fridgaire. I have a 1948 Canadian Fridgaire double dot pepsi. Why I am saying that, is at the corner seams of the cabinet the upper several inches on the seam are fully welded/ grinded smooth. Yours might be an earlier ice verison. Just my 2 cents.
