This True Cooler is smaller than the N-416 I have listed but can be seen in a 7-Up version by clicking on the first "Unknown" in the True Coolers Section.

I may be mistaken but this 7up cooler looks embossed?  (someone get Brain a tranquilizer)  ':p'

Ha! Nice machine! I talked to the guy in Florida today. Let's just say, it will take some time to get a deal done. He is a really nice old guy, but wants a ton for his machines. Wants $1500 on the Gullwing and over 8k on the 1 door True. I can get him down, but need to do my homework. I need to find the market value of that 1 door. Does anyone know or care to guess? He says it is not embossed and has a logo screened on. It has been restored. I want both coolers, but it will take awhile to get through to him.

I was figurin'  $800.00 or so.  I'm no expert but I think $8000.00 is just plain crazy and he will never sell it!

      Pay attention to his hometown and subscribe to his local newspaper so you can keep an eye on the obituaries.

      His widow will sell everything for $99.00 or less

I think he will come down. I talked to him for an hour and before we got off the phone, he said do your homework and call me back in a few days and make an offer or come down here with cash and we can make a deal. I am thinking of going down there!

Of course he will come down, but Brian...this is not embossed!   A True 4 door cooler could be reduced to
this size with a little cutting and welding. I'm not saying
this cooler is fake........but this is not exactly an RC 81.
   If it were embossed it could be priceless.
   I'm just contradicting my earlier statement that this True was a good purchase.  Now I say watch your wallet!

   And Squaretop Collector.....I'm sorry if I insulted you or your friend!

yea, I would like both, but not at the price he is talking. I am going to continue to talk to him. I do think he will come down and work with me. I am even going to take make a trip there to meet him in person. That goes a long way!
