Almost done

« on: November 26, 2013, 02:44:06 pm »

I've got the trim pieces out being chromed and a little snafu with the coin mech to work out, but I'm almost done restoring my Dr. Pepper USS-8-64k.

That's impressive. I like what you did with the coin door. Is the "I'm a Pepper" at the bottom a decal? Did you have to have someone make the plexiglass
insert for the lighted marquee?

Thanks! The plexi was original to the machine. The "I'm a Pepper" panel AND the coin door are decals. I originally had them painted but wasn't happy with how they came out.

When you say the coin door is a decal, do you mean the whole solid color maroon covering the lower ~2/3 of the coin door is a decal?

Yes. The whole coin door is covered with a decal.
