Looks like a job well done. The insides look really good for not being refinished.

It's a VMC 33/3-D, it looks even better in person! the fun part was finding the right size evap' fan to fit into that crazy coiled up evaporator assembly, the original Tecumseh pancake compressor still runs strong & it's super-quiet, if it wasn't for the cooling fan you wouldn't notice it was on at all. The coimech's rebuild & re-plating is just a knock-out ( as is the rest of the machine) Pat really put in quite a few hours on this one! All that's left if is for Pat to have the decals applied & away it goes...

Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon!
The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p
Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor
11 is louder than 10...
"Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan.
