That looks awesome!  Thanks for posting pictures. I enjoy looking at before & after photos. Just curious... What would it cost for you to make one for me? |

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

No, Its only decals. I didn't want to cut up the 81 or a cooler and mostly did not want the "is it fake ?is it real? " thing later in its life. This way there is no question that it is a "Real Generic". LOL!
Thanks,Johnny

Thanks for the kind words guys. I am proud of it myself. It does take alot of work to do one of these (as alot of you know). But It sure is satisfying when its all done. I have to say that doing this 81 was alot easier than the 7 up 110.
Yes Rod ,the decals worked out and look great. Do you know if they are laminated? Just wondering about waxing?
Thanks,Johnny

YEah, I liked the fact that although it's a "fantasy" machine, he still kept the originality of the machine, in that he simply painted it, rather than chopped it up. Decals are fine in my opnion, as it very well could of come off the line this way ;o)
That pic is my screen saver.... till my wife sees it and puts our kids back up lol

I want to do that wiath a square corner machine. I wonder how one would go about getting a silkscreen light panel made in orange crush. I would prefer silkscreen to vinal it lets the light better thru.

Great job! I really like the fantasy generics and I like that its still basically an origianal machine. Heck, you can change it around to a new flavor in another 10 years. How about a Frosty Root Beer?

That's a great job. Glad to see you left it as a generic 81 instead of fabricating something.
