I wish the inside of mine looked like that. That thing is a showpiece!

Very nice. I am thinking of doing a complete restoration on mine but I don't know the first thing about them.

I found a guy online Bill @ www.pennyscale.com that says if you send him your model# and serial# with your address he will send you a parts list and adjustment instructions FREE. I'm waiting on mine I'll let you know what I get and if it is worth it.

Chris, Thanks for posting this info. I have an American Scale Mfg. penny scale with fortune and it needs a slight adjustment. I am going to shoot the guy an email and see if he has info on my scale. I also need one of the chrome trim pieces for the front. Tim

Nice scale. It might be too late to tell you but don't lay it on it's back. There is a container of oil in the scale used for cushioning the innards when you step off the scale. I tilted mine and got oil everywhere. I had cardboard in the car but the scale was a pain to clean. Oil still shows up in the coin box.
By the way $400.00 is a good price if you don't have to do any sort of restoration. ILIKECOINOP was correct. Also, shipping is a killer so if you have it locally, it's a win, win situation.
That guy Bill is very knowledgable and he is willing to help anyone. A very cool guy.
I wanted the mint green scale without the mirror and with the questions, not sure what the Watling name is, but I found a Horoscope model nearby, that was also in awesome shape, so I bought that one instead.

I emailed Bill on Saturday and I received the enveploe yesterday. It had a nice breakdown and price list and pics with instructions on how to adjust and zero out the scale. I haven't tried the instructions yet, but that was a quick response from Bill. I'll let you guys know how the adjustments come out and how easy it was.
