Title: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: halehouse on March 14, 2010, 08:40:04 am Here is another that may amaze. :darn:
I wonder what genius came up with this one: http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/nva/atq/1642541569.html Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: Kilroy on March 14, 2010, 10:09:35 am What the ....
My back id hurting looking at it. And for that price, you can get a round top AND a wooden booth with changel eft over to make calls and refinish the machine Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: halehouse on March 14, 2010, 11:17:06 am Here are pictures, in case the Craigslist ad is taken off.
Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: mznb1u on March 14, 2010, 11:40:24 am Looks like they used a VMC 144 body for that contraption. I can attest to the fact that it IS heavy being that I have one sitting in the garage. I hope they removed the latch from the door or that could be a dangerous thing to have around kids. Being that they left the compressor in the machine you would be stepping into the liner area of the machine, it would appear that only the Mayor of Munchkinland could comfortably use the phone! And at only 24 inches wide, he may be a bit too wide! :laugh: 8) :biggrin:
Maybe I will pick up two more VMC 144's and create a vintage Coca Cola Machine confessional booth! :tounge: Of course, I might end up going to hell for that one! :oops: :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: collecture on March 14, 2010, 11:46:21 am Maybe I will pick up two more VMC 144's and create a vintage Coca Cola Machine confessional booth! Is that where one would go to confess that you purchased another machine without prior approval? Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: Kilroy on March 14, 2010, 11:48:10 am Now I wonder why the ad is gone
- A - He was tired of answering the phone and hearing 'what the ..." - Busted by the Coca cola police Tom - Love your idea, but agian, you have to be short and skinny, which i am neither to get in the confessional. Maybe a nice tool or parts cabinet, or lay it on it's side and bury it for a fall out shelter Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: mznb1u on March 14, 2010, 11:54:32 am Is that where one would go to confess that you purchased another machine without prior approval? :biggrin: :laugh: You might be on to something!!! Maybe there is a market for my idea!!! :biggrin: :laugh: Thanks for the much needed good laugh, Tom! :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: MoonDawg on March 14, 2010, 12:05:50 pm They left the compressor in it? Guess he could boast that it is also air-conditioned.
Title: Re: Coca Cola Phone Booth Post by: mznb1u on March 14, 2010, 12:10:14 pm I was guessing about the compressor because the ad indicated that it had the original motor in it from when it was a Coke machine. Without the compressor or something else heavy on the deck, it would be tippy.
