Looks pretty solid, no rust or major dents to repair!
Keep us posted on progress...

Actually the lower belt line across the back has cancered metal as well as a couple of spots on both sides. We are also replacing the bottom shelf with a new one. Tomorrow I'll have it all welded out and start the body work.  '>

Here's a couple of more photo's of Victor's 81. The lower shelf was rusted out and replaced with a new one. The cabinet was rusted out across the back and a couple of spots on each side. All the cancered metal has been removed and will be replaced with new metal.

The patches will eventually be stiched welded in solid, but I'm only doing a little at a time to avoid distorting the metal. Lots of work but the results are worth it. '>

Victor already had the bottle shelfs Zinc plated. I believe Steve Jebb had them done in Fresno for Victor. They really look greaat. The 81 is coming along nicely, I planned on it being completed by Friday but my Daughter is having a C-section performed tomorrow morning. So the machine will be delayed about a week. (Sorry Victor) but some things are worth waiting for.

Wow...kind of ironic... the "Rebirthing" of a classic Soda machine....to a new birth of a grandchild...Things are good in Terry's world...
machine looks great.. sure is fun to see the step by step... it's been a while since I reassembled one... sure would love to be able to paint like that though.... Some guys have all the luck!  '>

Thanks Guys,
This will be grand kid #2. My first one, Kiylee is 5 and is a major tom boy. She has a pedal car airplane and numerous other ride on toys in my shop. She also has a CRF50 motorcycle that I bought her for her 4th bday. #2 Grandchild is supposed to be a boy. I guess we'll know tomorrow. I attached a couple of photo's of Kiylee riding her 50 and also of the helmet that she picked out.
