Need Icebox for 1957 Bubble

I just acquired a Bubble and need an icebox. Does anyone have one for sale or know where i can go to acquire one? Is there a parts salvage yard for this kind of stuff? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I live in northern california

I have the enclosure apart right now but should have it back together this week. I will send a picture along with dimensions. I would prefer a vintage icebox.

Are you talking about an actual "ICE BOX" - the ones like an ice chest inset in the counter? If so - that should be an easy thing for any metal shop to make to a drawing set. Insulate with rigid foam.

I have the original ice box that I removed from my '49 Boles Aero. It is identical to the one that was original to my '58 Gem. It might be the one you are looking for. It is waiting patiently in my barn for a new home. I also have a "new" ice box from the late 60's, also waiting.

Hi All

The dimensions of the original enclosure i removed the icebox from is:

16" deep X 16" wide X 25" high

Sam - is this anywhere close to what you have? Also, can you send me a picture. Where are you located?

email: guzzi@frontiernet.net.

Thanks

I bought one of these off eBay, a vertical ice chest by Coleman. You can find ones that aren't woodgrain.
