Title: very rare pepsi ice box Post by: mrsoda on June 16, 2009, 11:11:56 am Thought i would share two photos of a very rare pepsi ice box i had restored a few years ago. it was in very bad shape when we found in new hampshire, it is embossed on the front you would put a block of ice in the top to keep cold. it has a drain tube that lets the water from the melting ice come out of the bottom. It is a very cool item, it took a lot of sheet metal work to get it to look like this, can not find any photos in the shape it was when we found, will keep looking for them.

Makes a nice bar room frig. It looks as though you can put anything in it.

It looks as though you can put anything in it. Remember, it's an Ice-Box, not a refrigerator. ( looks like it would hold 25-lb block of Ice.) :tounge: Title: Re: very rare pepsi ice box Post by: SIGNGUY on June 17, 2009, 08:48:37 am What part is embossed? the whole Bottle cap?
