Yard sale score!

Well dear old dad came through for me this past weekend. He bought a '73 f150 Avon cologne bottle never opened in the original box and another one that was opened and half used. Both for 50 cent at a yard sale. I had never seen one before and thought it was pretty cool. Only bad thing is the opened one stinks ungodly. I think Im going to pour it out and wash it with diesel fuel or some type of industrial funk remover. If you have one of these let me know. If you are still wearing the cologne...stop! Im curious how many are still around.

The only problem with keeping the cologne in the open one is that when you tighten the top so that it doesnt leak the bed and cab dont line up. My dad has a few of the mustang ones but this is the first time Id heard about 73-79 stuff being done. Hard to pass up for .50 stinking or not.
