This is what I found at the scrap yard yesterday. I saw the bottom and thought it was a dutch oven. When I picked it up, it was aluminum. I figured it would be good to set my chimney in it to get it started.

Then I found the top. Has any one seen anything like this before?

Google showed one for sale for $245 and one for sale at $55.

It was FREE!

Back when they gave you something. I used to have a Coke cooler and not only was it heavy, that sucker worked like no other cooler I've had since.
