how much was the paint job?

Thanks!  Local guy with a small shop painted it for $500.  It's like glass!  Beautiful!

Thanks Eric,  I originally was going to powder coat but I found a guy recommended by a friend and chose him instead.  It was fate!  The guy's wife is a hardcore Coke collector so he was pumped to do this job.  He was very thorough.  The machine had zero dents,waves,pits, etc.  Its like brand new!

Thanks! The restored coin mech will look sweet on it now and I am making a trip to Vegas next week for work.  There is a nice chrome plater there who will do my work for me.  Ill let you guys/gals know how they turn out.
