Title: Cavalier USS-64 Illumination
Post by: Jim on December 27, 2009, 08:42:41 am
Hello everyone,

I hope all had a great Christmas ! ! !  :happydrinkers:

A member contacted me to look at their machine and as it turns out, the condenser fan needs replacing, not a big deal... However, I would like to replace the metal marquee sign with a light-up marquee. Does anyone have a complete lighted marquee setup for a Cavalier USS-64 that I can purchase...?
I would need: framing w/ gaskets, sign w/ gasket, reflector w/ all wiring, ballast, starter socket, lamp holders (4).

Thanks!

Vendo lightup signs are too big to fit in a Cavalier

Jim,
Mine is all apart. But I could send dimensions and such. Sorry it's not for sale. It will be awhile before I can get to it though. Work has been work of late.

Or could just send it to you to duplicate and you send back. LMK.

Figured as much, but having never owned either model - wasn't sure. Thought possibly with a little modification it might.
Oh well - maybe someone on here needs one anyway.

Jim - I do have an extra light assembly from a late model WC-78. I'll have to check that I have all of it, but I'm pretty sure I do. Probably too big too, but if you want to see if you can make it work let me know and I'll send it to you.

Thanks for the replies!

tkaz has a parts USS-64 that has the complete light-up marquee, but in Pepsi...
I'm meeting the guy on Fri. to replace his condenser fan and I'll see if he wants to replace the standard sign w/ an illuminated one...
At that time, I'll purchase Tom's (tkaz) setup and begin looking for the correct Coke sign w/ the wave logo to complete the project...

Didn't someone on this site (not a regular) make a wave logo sign?

The owner of this machine has declined to convert his machine to an illuminated marquee...

Thank you all of you who corresponded ! ! !
