Scored a Glasco Coca-Cola cup Fountain dispenser, countertop. There are no serial/model/manufacture plate on it. It does have the Glasco logo on the front near the drain pan. There are 4 tap handles, I would like to find a Sprite and a TaB sticker to place on the tap handles. Would need to be early 60s vintage and have a protective coating. The stickers are 3/4 inch high and 1-1/2 inches wide. Two of the tap handles are not attached to the inside of the machine. I see no way to remove sides, back or bottom to attach something to hold the handles on. They just slide out. I hope that I can power the light behind the logo by by-passing the compressor. I would like to use the unit as a display piece not necessarily a functional unit. Photos later.
Terry

So, does ANYBODY have any experience with one of these? Two of the tap handles are not anchored to the back of where they are put in. I cannot see ANY where to get inside of this machine If I lift up the side panels, I just see a solid wall. There is no way in from below. I can see something inside when I remove one of the tap handles and shine a flashlight in.I don't really want to get the machine running, just displayable. I have the light behind the logo working I just need to figure out how 2 handles are loose and 2 are not. Thanks. Terry

Terry,
Glad you got the light working! As far as the dispensing handles are concerned, I cannot advise as I have not dealt with taking this type of dispenser apart... Hopefully, someone might have experience and chime in...

On a slightly different note... Know which model machine has the matching lime green/turquoise blue/white rounded diamonds around the logo? I have a clock that matches this particular Coca-Cola logo and someday like to find the machine that goes with it. Hopefully it is a small machine! Terry

The sign is called a "StyleStar" Sign. It was a common sign used in the mid to late 60's. I have personally only seen Cavalier 64's with this sign. They come around quite often. Here is a picture of one that I had a while ago. It is about as small as you can get.

I REALLY like that one!! It matches the fountain dispenser as the logo *sticks out* away from the machine and had the plastic cover much like the dispenser. I may have to look for one of those. I'll have to learn to live with the woodgrain, eh? Terry

I see several Stylestar machines listed under Glasco (DUH!) Several pre-mix (cup) machines, several bottle and a few can machines. Will watch for one local. Hope to find a small one. mybe someone will be interested in my Cavalier? I gotta go outside to find the model # if anyone is interested. Terry

If you have a Cavalier 64 the sign will work in your machine and they show up on ebay every now and then. Who knows someone here may have an extra laying around. The woodgrain is just contact paper and there is usually nice shinny white paint under it. Just use a hair drier and peel it off.

The ID plate is broken off. It is a 4 selection push button with 2 drop out holes where the bottle dispenses. It has a round coin entry to the left of the selectors. I'll have to look it up on the machines section later. With my luck, it will be one of those listed with NO photo! LOL. Terry
