      I have no Idea of value but I like the way you painted the crank handle backing plate red behind the white door. Nice machine!

The 1950s square corner machines from Westinghouse are not very sought after due to their "square corners".  I would not buy one restored but there are many members who like the square tops.  They may have a better understanding of the value of it.

Nice work on the restoration.

I like them... I had one once and shouldn't of let it go. Mine was all red. I think I prefer them that way..
Nice restoration. Are you looking to keep or to flip?

If you are looking to keep then the value is that fuzzy feeling you get every time you walk in the room and look proudly at  it and
say "I bought that back to life. Might have cost my marriage in the process...but it was worth it"

Hello, R500

 I can't reallly tell you the Value Of Your Hard work . But I really Like That Machine . But i like Diffirent  8)  I've  been Wanting One & Looking For One , I have a Couple Cavalier 55s And I love them And A few Other Member Like them also.

But I would say $2000.00 Is'n out of the Question But It's Got To be the right Guy .
