I'd like to know who he is and visit as he's only about an hour and a half from me!
I'm sure everything is for sale at top dollar and higher...

I noticed too that he has 2 RC's... also 2 7ups. and 2 pepsi's.....
What I also noticed is that on his 2tone RC machine, the little "R" next to the N on CROWN (trademark) is not there?  Yet it is on the all yellow one.
Could it be that it's not legit, and that he knows this and is keeping the all yellow, selling the 2 tone?  Hmmmmmmmmmm

Yeah, I know.. I like conspiricies (is that how it's spelt? lol)

Either way, this guy has an AWESOME  :jawdrop: collection!!!

Yeah, it is a nice collection.
What I don't like about the RC listing is that he is asking over 11k for it and shows ONE picture of the machine! The rest of the pics show his other stuff. I like to see other's collections, but if I was looking to bid or buy.....I'd want more details. Don't make everyone ask for more pics or specifics on the restoration, etc.

I clicked on the Pepsi 81 as I have someone looking for one. All I saw is one picture of the machine, so blurry made me dizzy, plus poor pictures of a lot of other stuff that doesn't interest me. No thanks.
