What are these Machines?

[Kilroy]

Len,
What makes youi say they are Canadian?   Is it the color schemes ( Or Colour north of the border?)
This isn't a challange, just another chance to learn some more form the board members.

Amazing what is still out there... 2 more coolers just sitting in a garage like that...
the larger cooler would definantly be worth looking into since it looks embossed..
depending on the condition of the tub, back and size.... would be killer to have...
Are you gonna try and get them? good luck if you do!

Well I picked up the two machines for pretty cheap.  And took a few pics of the machines. Both seem to have very little serious rust and minor surface rust, both tubs are not rotten through, and the bigger one besides a few dents and what not seems in pretty good shape.  There both embossed coolers

The smaller one seems to be fine, one leg is a bit rotten on the bottom about an inch is rotted off, and some of the embossed pannels have rust holes in them, one has a big rust spot on the bottem, but structurally I cant find to much wrong with them..  They both seem pretty sold.

I took a few pics for everyones viewing pleasure....  Anyone know someone who can restore the pepsi panels on here?  Heres the link for the pics, feel free to add them to the archive if one wishes as well, I'll take full machine pics when I get a chance..

Outstanding! They look great. Did you get a great deal??? I love them! I know a guy who would restored your signs and paint them by hand, if you are interested. These are cool double dot Pepsi coolers!!!!

Great Scores! That larger yellow Is keeper! Awesome... gotta be from the early 40s!
That yellow with red is killer... bet a Pepsi collector could help date it due to that color
scheme... any tags or little plates to help find out who made it?
Wanna see that one if you restore it... can't tell... what's the size?...is it a standard size
or master size cooler?...
Congrats on the score!!!!!

Those are great! I love the yellow. Nice score.

Wow!!  Those are awesome!  Great find for you!  Sure makes me want to do a Pepsi machine in the yellow color scheme, I love it!

Even though I am a Coke guy through and through, I have to admit that I like the Pepsi yellow and red paint scheme!  Very cool find.

My wife and her family would dis-own me if I brought one home though!

I saw a odd ball Orange Crush cooler on my last visit to Canada. It was made by a "Elevator" company.
