Title: Looking for Coke text/logo on side of machine
Post by: brasskey on February 18, 2011, 11:31:42 pm
Is this text and logo reproduced?  I didn't see it on Funtronics though I could have easily missed it.

You most likely find it reproduced as that slogan is from a machine that most of us don't include in the "Collectable" category.. tis' from the mid 80's I believe.

if your restoring that machine, best is to get it made at a sign shop.

Good luck

It's actually mid-60s to early 70s as it's a CSS-96.  I thought the machine might be "too new" like you said to easily find text. Thanks for the help.

Hi Ya

That sign/text would be really easy and cheap for a sign shop to make. That logo is all over the Internet.

It'll be really cheap too.. Give them a go.

      Like Dave said, that text is quite simple with no copyright protection.

If you're refinishing that machine, I'd be interested in what paint you use for the white.  I'm refinishing a similar one and the red is in decent shape but the white has a lot of scratches and I'd like to sand it down & recoat it with something is spray cans.

JD, Try auto touch up paint - GM White if you are going for   a spray bomb
