Looks great!! I am looking for one of those myself. I need the insides of a 56. Go figure. All of those 56's I have parted out and now I need parts.

Thanks guys... was wondering about the Hammer paint I've used the cans on some small candy machines and found using several thin layers it doesn't dimple as bad. Looks really good but I don't want to spray bomb a whole tub cause I'll never get it even like these small pieces Good to know that it'll go through a gun as it is so thick.
Keep these images coming.... And the tips!

One thing though. If I were you I would buy a cheep gun for hammertone use only. Although I have never done it myself I have heard that it can be really hard to clean and can destroy a good paint gun. I bought a cheep touchup gun on ebay just for this reason. I think I paid like $15 or $20 for it.

Oh yes!!! Not right now but sometime. I am a little short on $$$. I am going to finish this 64 and then do the 55. After that I am going to think about another frosty. I thought I was going to use the Cs64G that I have to build one but I sold it to help pay for completing this 64. I was hoping to shoot paint tomorrow morning but my paint gun hasn't made it here yet.

Keep us posted. Are you still able to get the decals. Isn't that company going out of business? Sure would be nice to find a CD with ALL the decals they USE to sell on it also.... I would be interested.......

I get them from Curtis. They are expensive but the best looking vinyl signs I have ever seen. Well worth the $$$

Does he have access to other brands would be nice to have for other coolers to restore. I have some logos just don't have them burnt to CDs cause I don't know what format to save them as....
I built them in Adobe Freehand.... Maybe I could contact him or is that Curtis that's posting here?

Its the same Curtis. It doesn't hurt to ask. He is a great guy. I wouldn't have been able to do the last frosty machine without his advice. When I told him what I was doing he sent me dozens of pics of the frosty machine he built to aid me in building mine.
