This makes a great story, these pic's should really be added to Jim's original post concerning this mystery machine. Title: Pics of the free hires cooler from this site Post by: collecture on August 10, 2006, 11:29:57 am Wow Bob,
I glad someone here got it! I really didn't want to make the 10 hour drive for it - too bad I didn't know about it when I drove by it the week before Jim's post. Looks to be in pretty darn good shape and embossed and complete! Can't beat that deal! Walter's third edition gives average value for the machine at $825 - I'd say you did good!

Can't ask for much better than that! Congrats! You gonna keep and restore?... Got to be the bargan of the summer! Title: Pics of the free hires cooler from this site Post by: sodaworks on August 10, 2006, 01:31:56 pm I wish now I would have jumped on this cooler. Nice find!!
