I came across a jukebox yesterday when checking out a building.  I asked the owner about it & ended up taking it home.  It is a late 50's - early 60's wurlitzer.

Anyone into jukeboxes?  Looking for a site like ours that discusses juke repair & restoration.

Thanks

The 2150 looks a little different; the glass face on this one curves in towards the machine.  It is over at my shop; I need to go & get a few good pictures & try & find a service manual for it.  I only took a few pics with teh cell phone last night after unloading it.

The machine is all origonal & complete, but I need to find a piece of the aluminum frame for the front glass.  I probably will have my buddy who is a machinist fabricate the part if I can't find it somewhere.  It would be much easier to find the part though.

Any ideas on a good website that deals with jukeboxes? 

This thing is gonna look real cool sharing space with the coke stuff.

jukeboxrepairservice.com has manuals, and repair parts. I've never ordered anything from them but I keep them in my bookmarks.

There is a wurlitzer group on Yahoo groups,  nice people, though the site has gotten really quiet lately.

http://webreports.netlojix.com/pipermail/jukebox-list

is about as close to a discussion board as you will get.

There is also a UK Jukebox list.. If you search British Jukebox Owners on google it will get you there.. I
have been a member so long I can't remember how I found it. Its e-mail based and there are quite
a few US Jukebox owners on it. Its probably a little more friendly than the Yahoo group and
they don't make you feel like a real fool if you don't know the technical stuff.
