Title: Cavalier CS144/3-select
Post by: johnieG on January 13, 2018, 07:16:25 pm
Here’s one I’ve gotten in for repair, all original & fairly rare to see around “ in the flesh” nowadays.
Weighs about 400 lbs empty( or at least feels like it) in for a compressor & basic rewire, & a minor vending issue, just thought I’d share.

It's nice to see someone actually spending some time and money to preserve such a large machine.

It is on the large size, It is embossed, so that's a plus... but no bigger than a V110 height-wise & not nearly as wide, it's straight, rust free & the trim is in excellent shape, I don't know how the front stainless "waffle" pattern trim panel escaped the years without a dent or two, it's clean inside too, it's just in need of some old brittle wiring replaced & the compressor I mentioned earlier replaced.

Is this one embossed on the sides also? I’ve seen a few like that.
They’re dinosaurs but each have their own cool points.

Nope, it's not embossed on the sides, just decals.
