Custom Chevrolet Progress Picnic Cooler

This generic Progress A1 picnic cooler was restored as an accessory for a 1957 Chevy show car. Painted the same color as the car, it was set out next to it during cruise nights. This was a fantasy piece; Progress never made a Chevrolet picnic cooler. The Chevrolet gold emblem was probably purchased from a supplier of reproduction Chevy parts like Danchuk Manufacturing, Inc.

Produced: 1940s
Dimensions: (without stand) 18”L x 13”W x 10”H
Manufactured by: Progress Refrigerator Company
