Semi-sporty; Help fixing a broken ice chest

pandabearrr

So, to make a long story short, last weekend I got an awesome cooler for free. (Found it on the river) A friend put it in the truck bed the wrong way and one of the lids blew off. The cooler is perfect minus the missing lid and Rubbermaid doesn't make a replacement lid for it.

It's a Rubbermaid 50 qt. Wheeled cooler, item# 2A92 (Can't add image but here's the URL)

I've been looking everywhere online; craigslist, ebay, amazon, every google link available. I really don't want to throw it away because there's nothing wrong with it! Help, please!

If anyone has this cooler, broken or not would you consider selling it?

Could you just use it for parties, as an open chest with ice & drinks? We burn through coolers and have a collection for different purposes (this one the lid isn't tight, so we put dry goods in it; this one for parties, you get the idea.)

DH did the EXACT same thing to our huge ice chest, but we were able to retrieve the lid and use a lid kit to fix it. You could keep it for storage, or when you have get togethers put ice and bevs in it for people to walk by and fish out.
