Time to show the final result! Since the square top is a less popular model and that we are only using with beer bottles, I decided to convert it in a Heineken machine... Let me know what you guys think!

My initial thought when I saw the Heineken theme was ..
..but the more I look at it I am beginning to like it more and more. Very nice job.
I always liked them (the poor mans V 44) we used to say. There is one of sale around here asking $1200

Thanks cormy! It was a hard decision to go with the Heineken theme instead of Coca-Cola, but I think it turns out great! The green looks nicer when the sun reflects on it because we can see more deeper into the metallic color. I don't drink Coca-Cola and it's always fill with Heineken, so it's perfect like that for now! Maybe one day I'll turn it back to a Coca-Cola Machine because the design is only a vinyl wrap over a matte black paint! The poor man V44 do the trick while waiting to have enough money to buy the rich man V44
