Can't be Red Stripe because the Stubby bottles won't fit through the gate.

I need another hint..."Soda Brand" or "Theme"..
Hint:  Soda, Midwest Brand.. might be a tough one and personally I think the colors she chose are a little off, but I'm going off actual Color patches she provided me...
I'll try to picture the door soon.

Sun Drop ?

WINNER!!!!

She sent me a photo of a 70's era SUNDROP machine she wanted me to mimic.. it's got this AVOCADO GREEN PAINT, and Mustard Yellow and orangy/pink coloring to it.. UGLY AS SIN.. but the customer is always right!.

I'tll have a wood grain front door and some god aweful "BORING" Graphic type set font... But the customer is always right.. I keep telling myself..

maybe when all is said and done, it'll look ok... we'll see.. It'll be a VMC 56 square top bottle machine..

artist would post ugly ads that the customers wanted done... And yes the customer
was always right...yet they weren't. 8)
