- It's time to rebuild our "vintage looking" swamp cooler. We've been using it for over a year and have been very pleased with it. Now it's time to make it look more vintage. Most of everything is explained in the video, but if you have any questions, please feel free to let us know!
Part II can be seen here: • Poor Mans Swamp Cooler...

I think the custom touches you added are amazing nice work. BIG THUMBS UP
Thanks Brian...!
Thankyou. I will make one from scratch. I am thinking PVC gutter section and end caps, PVC down pipe to hold a Bestway pool pump filter, and so on.
Interesting....keep us updated...
Like Tony Stark about his legal adviser ... I want one!!!
Thanks Wesley...!

Absolutely fantastic what great craftsmanship and Talent! I have a 1952 Ford F3 pick up I just put a Fulton sunrise aroundic and I really would like to have one of these swamp coolers. Can I please have a email so I can get in touch with you also , What is the price for one is it still $165 ? And if I do purchase one does it come primed and I paint the color of my choice ? Please advise, seriously Interested in purchasing ASAP Please and thank you!
The guy who was selling the "blanks" had an Etsy store. They're "bare bones" to start with, you just have to do things to make them your own. Last I looked a year or so ago, they'd gone up in price just a bit.
@houseofboyd Etsy store? Thank you so much for taking your time to get back to me . I'm not Familiar with What a Esty store is. Forgive me . But again thank For the lead!
@houseofboyd I located the Etsy store, thanks again!
Is that custom trim on your bug doors
Yes, I did it about 5 years ago.

I am impressed with your video and your work! I will have to get one of these for my 72 SB so I can keep cool in New Mexico. By the way, how does the cooler work? if it's swamp, you must add water somewhere??
No, it's purely forced air. However, if you're creative enough, you can build the internals to make it work just like a vintage swamp cooler...it's a really good platform to start with. :)
Have you gotten one for your beetle and if so which one??

Do you have close up pics of the bracket?? Have one with no bracket!! Don't want to break a window.
I made the bracket, so it's not something you can buy. It's only there for some support, but mainly to mimic the originals..The cooler is light enough that it doesn't require a bracket. Here's pretty good close up of the bracket..I made it with aluminum tube, all thread rod, suction cup and a piece of bent metal yard stick... www.flickr.com/photos/boydhouse/29478054937/in/album-72157648489426094/

So these are functional coolers from the maker?
Somewhat functional.
where do ya put the ice ?
This does not use ice. I can be modified to if you would like to.
Nice! What's the name of this jam tho!?
