I guess alot would depend on what your making it into or branded with... I guess I don't get the purple theme? unless a vikings machine?

      Interesting machine.
      I would like to see it branded in a soda theme as well (RC)? but that may be restrictive by what bottle would vend through this machine and if that product were readily available.

i'd like to do a machine  for "Duff Beer", though I am not that much of a Simpson's fan, it could be fun

How bout Coke red with a big Sprite boy on it.. and large Coke bottles...  :biggrin: ha ha

I would think the 76 would be neat and the colors in those decals could be cool to use.. looks like some dark blue and oranges.. and those decals on it currently would look great on it..  I'm not familiar with 76 but I think that would keep the machine unique just like it is now!..

I wouldn't go a regular brand.. keep it off brand.. and use  that brands colors..

Just saw this on ebay...

You got red  blue  yellow and light brown
Its off brand
The fella (mascot) made me think of the 76 soldier..

On the other hand, are we talking fantasy as in off brands that are still available? Didn't know if you are re-doing it to dispense what is currently available.

'76 Soda will be the theme. Now the colors? We will not be vending '76 soda just because it is not produced anymore. But this is just a machine that will sit in Harrison's collection room.  I need more input !!

Are there any 76 signs from this era?... if a sign could be found you could see what they used as colors...
But I would think good red, white and blue would be awesome.

we are going to make it Harrion's Orange soda. Blue and orange will be the color will make it. We have no signs that match the decals on this machine.
