Title: Creative Paint Job on a V44
Post by: SIGNGUY on February 05, 2010, 12:58:54 pm
We'll call this the Stars and Stripes version of the Vendo 44... Pretty creative paint job on this machine a guy sent me some pictures of.  he likes it the way it is, as I of course asked if I could restore it for him... he is keeping it this way for a while... why, I am not sure.
If you salute it, a cold coke comes out I guess?
hmmm

Looks like something my boy would do if he were left unsupervised.

It is not that bad kind of neat really because it is different. Might look even better if the letters Coca-Cola was painted white.

Actually, I think some white stars would make it look a lot better. :biggrin:

I think the one small change that would make that machine look better than the original would be if it was sitting in my game room!  :biggrin: 8) :laugh:  I will find one someday.  But really I am holding out for the rare Vendo 44 Grill.  I heard that a team of craftsmen are hard at work on one right now! :tounge:

Thanks guys, for confirming I'm not totally crazy. I thought I was having a bad case of Deja Vue,  but I also remember seeing  it.
