I am new to the forums here but I have already learned a lot by reading the wealth of info here.
I have a couple of Cavalier 64's and a 72. One of the 64's is running working in almost original condition except for a replacement thermostat. The 72 is going to take some work and a lot of cleaning. The other 64 will be my first attempt at a full restoration.
My Dad worked for a local Coca Cola bottler in West Texas for about 20 years from the later 1940's into the 1960's. He spent time in bottling, coolers and transportation. I actually worked there some and even painted a few coolers back in the day. I wish he remembered more about the coolers but that was a long time ago.
Thanks

Welcome to the site!
I would look into putting your efforts into your 72 first as it is a far more collectible machine unless of coarse you are using your 64 as a practice machine. Photos would be great.

Well, it looks like we have a strong interest in sweet things. So if anyone get anywhere close to Tupelo MS I will spring for the ice cream, donuts, pecan pie, banana pudding, or whatever your favorite is.
Thanks y'all Bo
