I like the white, something you don't see every day. Some one needs to save it from being a toy box.

It does look nice... as stated, something different.
I drink Coke Zero, and I've always thought about a 39 or a 44 in black and/or white over black, with a decal of the ZERO on the machine.  It would have to be the last machine I would get done, as there are FAR too many in line for restoration lol.  Yet I think it would be different looking thats for sure.

Intresting...  I agree, I think the reversed paint does look good on the coolers.

I restored one like that in 1990, took it to carlisle and sold it off the back of the trailer setting up. Everyone loved it much better over the red one I took.

I saw a Superior Jr a guy did in white with black letters.
Looked awesome. From the pics I would have thought it was genuine had I not known better.
If I find a pic of it I'll post it.

I think with a white backround instead of red it creates an illusion of more contrast because the eye is naturally drawn to the red area. Very cool, I like it also.

A white V39 is up for sale in NYC.   Paint on the gasket, no side decals, not original as the seller states.

I was thinking of dong my 39 in reverse colors, now looking at one, I'm up in the air about it
