ABSTRACT:
A food and drink cooler is provided for automobiles having a "ski hole" in a partition between the trunk and the passenger compartment. The cooler is mounted in the vehicle trunk and has a top closure lid and closeable portal in an upstanding wall. The portal includes a hub extending from the wall and positionable through the "ski hole" so that a passenger in the vehicle may have access to the interior of the cooler. A closure member closes the portal when not in use. The cooler includes a false floor which has drain holes for permitting melted ice to drain down onto the base of the cooler, and the water so melted may flow through a drain plug at the bottom of the cooler to tubing connecting the plug to the exterior of the vehicle. The cooler also includes a water and ice dam which precludes water and ice from flowing out through the portal when the closure member is removed and the vehicle is in motion.
