Title: Picked Up Sez Popcorn Warmer
Post by: mygoose101 on April 17, 2016, 04:02:00 pm
Found this on CL a couple of weeks ago. Seller was just a little over a hour from me so I decided to take a Sunday drive this morning to pick it up. Got it for a very fair price and machine is complete and working. Very straight and a nice original but going to have it redone. I've seen some pictures here of restored ones and they look killer.

Looks great.. I'd try to clean and polish a section before I have it redone.  See how it turns out.  It looks good the way it is.

Photos of completed machine. James did a great job with disassemble and paint. He had all the stainless trim polished. I got globe and decal set from Fun-Tronics. It was Rod's picture on here that made me totally want to find one.

It is a nice job but if both were standing side by side, I would've picked the original.  I like that look better.  Yellow and red do go great together, but dingy white and red are awesome.  :biggrin:  Still a nice machine and a great piece for your collection.

Thanks everyone. I've owned so many soda machines since I bought my first one, a Cavalier 96 over 20 years ago that it's nice to mix things up a bit.

Restoration looks awesome.  I love the colors.  Would you be willing to share your paint codes?   I assume the red matches the "Hot Fresh" decal?
