Along the lines of what Eric said, holiday bills are rolling in so funds are an issue

Now is a hard time to sell, I have had some good deals listed and it took me some time to sell. Most folks haven't got their tax return yet either so hopefully when those start going out sales will pick back up, it's a hard time right now for most businesses. Also, as others pointed out there are some clues to the restoration quality that makes someone wonder what mite be lurking behind the paint.

The generation that is paying big money for these machines is getting smaller and smaller everyday, supply and demand to say the least. That's a different story, great looking machine!

Hey John,
Glad you will not be upside down on the Pepsi. Hope it needs very little.

To me this is what Pepsi blue should look like . I also think it's too dark . This 39 was painted in the 50s

That 39 was painted in the early 60s, Very typical light blue that was found on the transitional and early square tops.
