Was this some feeble attempt at bombing, or where they trying to scare of the enemy with Fizzy Soda and Loud music??  Anyone want to go on a Road Trip to NAM to find some relics??
I'm in!

Depending on the route I take to my parents' house, there is one headed down Route 29 in VA

How far down 29?  I am headed up that way in a couple of weeks to teach a class.

I have a cav 51 that is pretty rusty around the bottom.  I have been thinking it was going to be too big of a job and I might just part it out.  In light of these pics, I will keep my near mint 51 to tinker with.

Good luck and I and anxious to see this one when it is done.

Bubba,

Brian B has a complete cabinet for sale i think.

Hey Jeff,

It is north of Madison, I want to say around Culpeper. It is right next to a VDOT "terminal".  I am going to look at a map to see if I can remember exactly where it was.  I know it when I drive it, know what I mean?  How far up 29 are you coming?

Last fall I was riding a train (one of those scenic raliways) with my wife and 4 year old son when I was looking out the window and saw just the tops of a bunch of machines in a backyard peeking out from behind a 6ft +/- privacy fence.  It was right next to the road and we were just leaving the town. That was in NW PA. Will have to check that again.

Joey, I have faith that the cabinet will once again shine.  Send me your mailing address in a PM, I want to send you something for the baby.....Also I traded for an Ideal 85 embossed Nesbitt so the juke box will have to wait but at least I have a new project...

Patching rust through areas should not be too difficult, as always....the hardest part is starting the project, gets easier the better it looks.  I see the typical 81 rust through on the beltline in the rear,  but is that a rust hole in the top of the back panel? How would water collect there?      And any idea why it was nesessary for some dimwit to chisel a hole in your main door?   ':p'

i believe the hole in the coin door area is from a tractor fork, It has also been dropped real hard on the right side as its square at the bottom and goes in a good inch as you move up the machine. I'll get some better closeups of the rusted areas hopefully you guys can give me some ideas.
