Here are the two of jukeboxes I got in an old farmhouse celler over the weekend. A Seeburg HF100R as well as a Wurlitzer 2500. They need a lot of TLC but they were given to me. This couple may be the nicest people I have ever met in my junkets. Here are a couple of pics. It may take me 6 months to restore the Seeburg. I will just try to clean up and get the Wurlitzer to play.
Good hunting!! Brian C

Great find! Is the chrome on the Seeburg pitted or just dirty? Plus, I've always thought that the 2500 is weird looking juke!

Pitted chrome and yes the 2500 is a little weird. After I'm done cleaing it up, maybe it will look a little better. I think the R will be awesome when I'm finished with the restoration. Brian

Got to be the finds of the year and it's only Feb.!!!!! Great score and I'm green with envy! How did this come about?!? Did you run a want ad? Always like to know how these come about.... I run ads.... though it has really slowed as there are about 4 other guys that run similiar ads in the free papers. Way to go!
Have to add... we want to see the after pics by the end of the summer! '>

I have a JL... sister to the R and its the best sounding Juke I've ever had or heard. With those side speakers the R must be even better.

Terry:
You just can't be "free". I am thinking of sending in the amps as well as the mechenism to be professionally restored. I am ordering a veneer kit for the R and I can do the non-electrical restoration myself. It can't be much harder then a Stoner. I do need help on the mecheanicals and electricals and that is why I want to send out the amplifier and changer. Any ideas on where I could have them restored? I will send a few pics while I am doing the restoration.
ps I placed an add in a variety of newspapers in my area. I have been in contact with this couple for more than a year. They know that these jukes would be restored and my kids will be putting dimes in them before you know it.

I use "Brad Franks Restorations" in Chattsworth, Ca. (818-709-2157) for all my jukebox amplifiers and changers. Brad is an honest guy and does top quality restoration work. Tell Brad I sent you. '>
