Picked this up in Welland,great project for a long cold winter. No longer had any of the cooling equipment,so just for show,or fill with ice and?? Great for those big parties we always want to have but never have time for!

Hi there - I'm in Ontario and wondered where you had it restored?
Hi Stu2000, this was done by me, just cleaned,sanded,primed,painted,and even lettered! My first time doing the lettering, looks great from 5" back!! The lettering part of it could use an up-grade ,but thats how I roll,like to do things myself!
Nice job pickr, I'm going to do mine too. Is there a certain red that you used. I have quite a few questions for ya actually, since you've done one, lol
Nice work!!!
Thanks tommy, I tried a few, but the Tremclad Fire Red was the best match!
Thanks stu2000, what part of Ont.?
Grew up in Waterloo but I'm living in Toronto. That guy's place in Lindsay looks unbelievable - thanks for sharing. Have you been?
thank you sir, duly noted !!
Went there this summer & he was closed!! Should have called first! He was on Canadian Picker's, but those clowns wanted every-thing on the cheap, from a retailer/picker, they ended up with not much ! He has 4 trailers full of items, plus a huge work-shop packed!
Very nice job. Congrats on doing the lettering yourself. I'd like to try
to do mine myself. I know its a specialty doing it, but what why not try.
Especially when there are raised letters an all 4 sides. It would cost a bundle to have a pro do it. Gota get the right brush and paint and have at it.
Thanks for the nice comments magcag01. A freind gave me a tip to try on the next project. With having the raised letters,he suggested a fine paint roller avail. at hobby shops and roll the lettering on. Hav'nt tried it ,but makes sense. Good luck with yours!
Thanks olegaclockman47!
Thanks BELLIN68!
very COOOL , pardon the pun.
Thanks Mikie!!
Nice Job!
