Thanks Creighton Title: Re: Victor Kooler Grill (The Hot Dog Griller) Complete dissemble Day 1 Post by: memorylane on September 29, 2015, 04:57:11 pm We are in the middle of metal work and just bought a near mint, complete 3 door victor for the one end, some trim, cap catchers, door pieces. This cooler is so nice we hate to part it out but it has everything we need. Will need to cut out the embossed lettering and plate over the compressor opening. We are currently working on 18 full size machines for customers and a dozen or so smalls, so time is tight. Will post photos of the progress in the next few weeks. Thanks for asking.
