I was out today looking for that fix when I came across this very nice 1960's Coca-Cola cooler. The inside is just as clean as the outside. It looks to be all original. Only thing I question is why someone put a screw right beneath the bottle cap opener, or maybe that is correct, not sure. Right above the drain plug it is embossed Progress Refrigerator Co. Louisville, Ky. I couldn't find this in Petretti's 12th edition price guide.

Nice Find!
That's a 1960s cooler. Things Go Better With Coke is a 60s slogan. Nice one, I have the exact one. It's like a newer airline cooler, same size. Book-valued at around $150-$200 depending on condition.
Thank you Ray for stopping by and correcting my mistake. Thank you for the compliment and the book-value.

I know you don't reveal your picker prices. Let me guess, $125? Hot? Cold?
Thank you chevy59!
