Just picked up this parts machine and have what I need off it. I will be selling misc. parts but need help with machine identification as there is NO data plate. 

A Cavalier 64 of some sort with 8 shelves that measure 8" x 14".

There is a data plate on the cooling parts that might make sense to somebody.

Thank you for any help y'all can give.

Greg

While I can't say for sure, it looks like a Style Star variant of the CSS-64, with a 7up sign replacing the original.

Like this one here.



The hole for the bottle opener looks too wide for the bezel around it to interchange with a standard (red "Enjoy Coca-Cola" w/wave sign) Cav 64, but hopefully someone with more knowledge will confirm that.

        According to Steve Ebner's book, Cavalier first introduced the CS-64C in 1960, identifiable by it's gold coin entry plate across the front.
In 1962 the C-64-E was introduced which had the round chrome entry bezel we are all familiar with, and is the most popular today.

        The machine being discussed here was named the CSS-64 and was produced from 1966 and on.
The woodgrain and polished aluminum was supposed to give it a more modern look, but I think now it only hurts it's desirability in the collector market.

         All parts on the latter 2 models are interchangeable.

I've heard of a CS-64F, which from what I can tell is almost identical to the CS-64E. What is the difference between those two models?
