Just finished up a U Select I got a little while back. Had a new base built for it and re-sprayed.
Thought I would go with the Hershey's Theme.
May have got a little carried away with the decals. Kids like it though.

Looks great!  Are the mechanisms on these hard to work on, seems like they'd be relatively simple...might have to add it to the want list!

Looks great Dave, I really like how the Hersey's letters are blocked out. Is that a cigarette machine inside the doorway with a clock on top? Looks interesting!

You did a nice job making what usually looks like a boring machine into something really fun, good job. Makes me want to eat a piece of candy now.

Saw one of these a while back and didn't even give it a second thought - it just didn't seem to have much appeal in the shape it was in.  Now I wish I would have looked a bit closer.  Really great looking piece you have there and not a big lot of space needed to display.  I just added one of these to my want list.

Thanks Chaps..

Leonard - You are right. No space in the little room. Am in the process of trying to negociate a little space outside now. Not looking good.

Tom - The Cig machine you can see in the background is a 1929 Art Deco three coloumn vendor. Stainless steel. Made for posh locations.

I really like the U Selects. I have two and have been very lucky with the mechs. Both have worked after some slight fiddling. Hardest part was getting the back door off.

Very nice!
I live about 30 minutes from Hershey PA.  I could see that in one of their museum exhibits.   Cool
