Agreed, it looks very nice.  Also they don't stop at one,  once you have one before you know it you'll have a couple.

Hello Jay,

Welcome and I'm glad to hear SMC helped in some way to get your machine not only redone but also moved into the house ! ! !
Congrats on a good job and as others have said, be careful as I can see another machine in your future...

Thanks for the kind words.

It is official. The machine  did make it in the house.  The after Picture was  taken before the better half saw the finished product.  (She was on a business trip)

As for the next one... I don't know.  I live near Savannah and finding this one close enough is a bear.  Finding anything is tough actually.  I was lucky to find this one. The only one that might get approval would be a round top. Or I would be happy to lend ahand to help a freind with thiers.

Does Anyone have Labels for the Knobs??  I am interested  in the normal ones...Coke Sprite Etc as well as Corona, Miller lite etc.

Any help would be apreciated

Thanks again Guys
Jay

Savvanah - I thought you'd be tripping over yourself down that end of the world, with roundtops.

The home of Coke is only down the road.

Y'know Jay...........this statement may have been true until now.  But you have been bit! You just restored your first machine and there are now going to be other machines just following you home.

        There's a hundred people here on this site that just "fell into" their first machine. Now they're addicted. They bring home these old machines knowing they will consequently spend the next few nights sleeping on the couch. But just owning one that has been re-done gets your friends asking if you would be on the lookout for another one for them.

        Pretty soon one of the walls in your garage gets dedicated to lining up these facinating dispensers. And it doesn't stop there.........candy , gum, popcorn , signs, neons, gas pumps.  There is no cure for this addiction so we suggest you stay posted to this site to learn what's hot and what's not before it comes your way.

        We have a guy on board from England,(forgot his name) who once said the same thing, that this stuff was hard to find.  He has now run out of room and his wife has even joined us looking for therapy for him  '<img'>

        Welcome aboard and thanks for the pictures!

Jay - nice looking machine. You can find some info on labels in this thread and you can find the file I use to make labels here.
