Title: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: johnnyselman on July 17, 2011, 03:48:27 pm Here is a my Generic VMC 81 done as an Orange-Crush that I just finished.. At some point a Coke bottling company had it.

Just curious... What would it cost for you to make one for me? Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: johnieG on July 17, 2011, 04:47:53 pm Very nice!
Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: Jim on July 17, 2011, 04:58:05 pm Very nice indeed ! ! !
Is the lettering the embossing from a cooler...? Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: johnnyselman on July 17, 2011, 05:09:45 pm No, Its only decals. I didn't want to cut up the 81 or a cooler and mostly did not want the "is it fake ?is it real? " thing later in its life. This way there is no question that it is a "Real Generic". LOL!
Thanks,Johnny Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: cokecolaman on July 17, 2011, 05:15:07 pm I love your machine...very jealous! I'm thinking about doing the same thing with my generic.

Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: johnnyselman on July 17, 2011, 10:43:10 pm Thanks for the kind words guys. I am proud of it myself. It does take alot of work to do one of these (as alot of you know). But It sure is satisfying when its all done. I have to say that doing this 81 was alot easier than the 7 up 110.
Yes Rod ,the decals worked out and look great. Do you know if they are laminated? Just wondering about waxing? Thanks,Johnny Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: Pat Pixley on July 17, 2011, 11:45:10 pm Look good you did a good job 8) .

Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: globalcompressors on July 18, 2011, 09:00:17 pm very nice!
Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: BrianB on July 20, 2011, 06:54:46 am Looks as good as they did when they rolled off of the assembly line!!! :laugh:
Sorry, couldn't pass that one up..... Seriously, the machine looks great. I love that orange and white!! :smile: Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: gasmelincelr on July 20, 2011, 07:39:29 am Nice job. That is an impressive machine!
Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: mznb1u on July 20, 2011, 08:12:20 am Nice machine and I am glad that you kept it "generic"! :happydrinkers:
:drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: BONOVOX on July 20, 2011, 02:23:26 pm YEah, I liked the fact that although it's a "fantasy" machine, he still kept the originality of the machine, in that he simply painted it, rather than chopped it up. Decals are fine in my opnion, as it very well could of come off the line this way ;o)
That pic is my screen saver.... till my wife sees it and puts our kids back up lol Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: briandr1 on July 20, 2011, 04:04:29 pm I want to do that wiath a square corner machine. I wonder how one would go about getting a silkscreen light panel made in orange crush. I would prefer silkscreen to vinal it lets the light better thru.
Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: oscar on July 20, 2011, 04:17:17 pm It's so hard to find anything other than Coke. That machine would light up the room.
Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: BrianS on July 20, 2011, 08:11:17 pm Great job! I really like the fantasy generics and I like that its still basically an origianal machine. Heck, you can change it around to a new flavor in another 10 years. How about a Frosty Root Beer?
Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: johnnyselman on July 20, 2011, 09:10:43 pm I'm glad all you guys like it. It means a lot to me.
Thanks,Johnny Title: Re: Finished My Orange Crush 81 !! Post by: Marvin on July 20, 2011, 10:13:09 pm That's a great job. Glad to see you left it as a generic 81 instead of fabricating something.
