I've had this idea for some time, and I finally finished it. I turned my 8 pull stoner candy machine into a light up Rt 66 candy machine. The bottom car hop scene is light up with LED lights. I have a plug and switch in the back of the machine, so it can be turned off or on. The lights on the diner scroll, and blink and then stay on. I did the inside as nice as the outside. The flappers inside are all done in black and white. And thanks to Tom the coin mech also looks brand new. It took some time to draw all this up and work with my graphic guy to get all the graphics the way I wanted. Also took some time to drill all the holes for the small light bulbs. I also just finished the Coke WD5 in the picture also. Now on to the next big project??

Hey Rod,
That actually looks like a 4 select pastry machine w/ an 8 select display glass...
Looks awesome ! ! !

Yes I did the pulls in black and white, and in the picture the black pulls blend in with the rest of the machine.

     Nice machine Rod and an excellent solution to utilizing that blank area below.
The idea will probably catch on, maybe room there for a flatscreen TV?
