Any Coca Cola collectors here? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

Benzz0 · 07-19-2006, 06:59 AM

My Mom is the epitome of one of those collectors and I want to get her something for Chrsitmas - yeah I do Christmas shopping ALL the time as I HATE the rush and Disorder of the Malls during that time

I would LOVE to get her one of those Coke coolers

but they are not cheap...got any other ideas? She has trays, bar lights, neon signs

, glasses out the wazzu...small tins, tin boxes, tin tip trays, serving trays....basically name it she has it except the bigger Coke things....coolers, whatnot

I have looked on eBay and other auction but those places rape you on shipping and basically think aNYTHING with the name Coke/Coca Cola is a collectible

got any links or have a cooler laying around

I've got a 50's or 60's era metal Coke ice chest my mother in law gave me... I've been thinking about putting it on Ebay.....

CaryW · 07-19-2006, 07:35 AM

Just to make you sick, I was scavanging old homesteads before the coal mine bulldozed the places. Covering the well was a near perfect 6 foot round sign, and in the old barn was one of the coke double sliding door coolers used to hold feed. I would say about an 8 condition.

Bout a 1500+ find.

fourlofirst · 07-19-2006, 08:03 AM

I just found a Coca-Cola thermometer yesterday...One of those big (12") round ones. Looks pretty old, but in okay shape. Want it?

Dieselmh · 07-19-2006, 08:06 AM

I just threw away an empty two liter Caffeine free diet Coke bottle. You want me to dig it out and ship it to you?

Fisheadgib · 07-19-2006, 08:31 AM

If you come down here on vacation this year, there's a gift shop on the strip in Fort Walton Beach that specializes in Coca Cola stuff.

Here's a better idea...why don't you cut 3 cans into small trainglular pieces or square for that matter...then ingest them!

then post pics of your Xrays!

coolcruiserfj40 · 07-19-2006, 10:08 AM

Krusty · 07-19-2006, 10:46 AM

I am kinda a collector-- but not nutz with it----- a couple favorites are bottles from other countrys !

AthlonAJ · 07-19-2006, 12:50 PM

How about an old Coke bottle vending machine? Has the vertical glass door, bottles lay in there with the tops facing out I believe.

My b-i-l is a DSM for Coke. I'll see if he has anything cool. Usually his stuff is not available to the general public. Is she a sports fan at all? What's your budget?

Myanarchy · 07-19-2006, 01:00 PM

We have a coke rolex given for my great grandfather's retirement from coke, a coke cooler in mint condition, and coke drink chest, one of the old ones from a store. Metal and about 6 feet by 4 feet tall, and various other old relics.

jstandle · 07-19-2006, 01:06 PM

Depending how she feels about the Coke brand itself, you could get her sort-of a gag gift and get her some type of Pepsi brand collectable.

JohnnyJ · 07-19-2006, 01:12 PM

I have a mini-file cabinent full of coke bottles here at work. With the $0.10 deposit here in Michigan, it's got to be worth about $20.

The old school vending machines with the door you open to pull out the pop are cool. A store I went to when I was a kid had one, I enjoyed getting a coke just to play with the machine.
