Where do you use your vintage soda machine(s)?

Did you pick up any Dr. Pepper Jerky?

Wow!  DP jerky....   Didn't see any of that in the gift shop but I can't say I was looking for it.  Had "Pretty Peggy Pepper" been there selling the stuff I probably would have bought the place out.

You're lucky Markito isn't here, he'd give you #### for storing stuff on top of your machine... '>

Yeah, you are officially busted by the "Junk-On-Top-Of-The-Vintage-Machine-Police". '>  '>

But I'll let you go with a warning (no ticket) because I was a huge fan of the "Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots" myself when I was a kid. '>

"...they'll knock yer block off!"    


Thanks for thinking of me Bob k., that cracked me up!

Welcome back, kito... '>

I almost purchased "Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots" mint in the original box a few years back but passed since I thought the $90 was just a little too much at the time... Wish I had them now!

Mint in original box... I would have paid that. '>

Either now or in the near future, you could turn around and sell it for a whole lot more.

Mine is in our small gameroom in the basement. (some video games are to the right of the jukebox)

Dr. G.,
I see in the photo of your gameroom that you have your traffic light (or is it semaphor?) attached to your wall. They are heavy suckers and don't have much to cling to.

I have one as well and need to mount it too.

What did you use to attach it?

I like the Drive-In speakers!

[dr galaga]

I just have a piece of metal (mending plate?) inside and outside with an eye bolt going through.  There is a chain that goes up to the floor joists.  Back in my college years (and I lived with my parents) I just drilled two holes in the back and used lag bolts to attach them to a stud!  

My wife got the drive in speakers from the local drive in when they were remodeling.  I have a parking meter that I am working on that I'm gonig to put in front of (and below) the speakers.
