It's been on there a few times, he can't seem to get the 5000$ he's looking for, I can appreciate how much he's got into to it  but it's still  sacrilegious, a dam shame in my opinion,  I was thinking the same thing mainT, I've actually bid on it a few times, I have a 81D in desperate need of a cabinet, that thing would save me so much work but I think his reserve is close to his ridiculous asking price  !

Some of the folks in Idaho march to the beat of a very different drummer. And yes you can easily get shot if you bother them.
Interesting long winded description. Like the ammo boxes in the cooling compartment :-).

He is spot on that it doesn't scream gun safe. Trouble is, it's darn nice start on a 81 restore.
Thieving scum will hit the jackpot cause they know old Coke machines are good and will hotwire the pickup load the 81 and then find the weapons.

I await the final episode of "Pickers" where some old codger proudly shows the taxidermy heads of Rick and Dave.

He spent a lot of effort making it look like an operating soda machine - Nice paint job (inc. lettering), bottles in the stack, working light, decals. Oops....what about a crank handle?
