Well the body is ready for paint and I found a guy who is trying to repair the Coca-Cola plates. Haven’t updated the restoration web page yet as there isn’t much new to see. I have how ever updated the Dispenser Collection page with 4 more dispensers and added a Service manual from the 60’s that is very nice. So take a look if you like.

Your site never fails to amuse me. I recognize many of the machines from my youth. Never thought of collecting them. Now, I can not remember the last time I saw one.

Steve,
With your ever-growing collection of original literature, are you still intersted in assisting Soda-Machines.Com in a possible Syrup Dispensers Section...?

Just wanted to drop a note about the project here. The plates have been removed of all the chrome and the guy working on them was able to sand the lettering a little to flatten them out. I am still not happy with it and looking into other options.
I now have 4 non-Coca-Cola dispensers all of them need to be restored so I am think of adding a upcoming project section for them. So there is nothing new on the web site to report. As soon as there is you will be the first to know.

Here is the latest on the Coca-Cola plates. One came up on greed bay and I got it, then took in a print out of the auction to the chrome shop and he is paying for this one and refunding all of the money I had paid him for the plating work. So now I just need to find someone willing to work on the ones I have or find two more for sale.

Well good things come to those who wait (long enough). I have found two other plates and now have replaced all three of the ones damaged by the chrome shop. I can know get back on the project and will have some new progress to update the web site with soon.
