Nice machine Terry... What kind of "legs" is the machine on?

In the photo the machine was still on 4" bolts. I use these to "lift" the machine during rstorations, makes painting underneth a lot easier. The original style leg levelers were added afterwards.

If I remember correctly, that machine looked OK before it was restored but you made it look better than new.
    Can we see a pic of the chromed coin enrty bezel? I've never seen one un-pitted before '<img'>    And the sign lit up ? Nice work Terry

The original machine needed alot more work than it appeared. The sign does lit up. These 55's are some what of a chore to retore. This one belongs to a client and is set up to vend cans.

My client wanted something different from the original bland side marking's but we wanted to stay within the era of the machine. The fishtail logo's really set the machine off. When I build me one I will stay with the fishtail logo's
