Title: Stoner Gum Machine on CL in my area Post by: jholmgren on December 14, 2013, 08:29:12 pm http://harrisburg.craigslist.org/atq/4228847591.html
$475 - saw some of these at Chicago bolted to the side of Stoners. If anyone is interested, I could probably help with pickup/shipping.

I seen one NOS selling for $400 of course it didn't have the brackets though. I have one restored I'll have to post a picture of. I had to make a few parts for it. What would you say a restored one would bring?

I spoke with the seller some time ago... As far as a price for a restored one, well I listed my restored vendor on the "the bay" and couldn't sell it for $1K and mine has been completely redone! Dis-assembled everything and re-zinc plated all the parts, etc, etc... Interestingly, I did buy a NOS Stoner Gum Vendor still in the original box w/ original brackets ! ! !

Can't remember if it has the coin box now. but did have all the weights.

Title: Re: Stoner Gum Machine on CL in my area Post by: Eric on December 20, 2013, 10:10:40 pm There's a Hammertone and a Hammerite paint that gives that result... Ace Hardware, Lowes about any place... Also I think Hammerite
has a site you can get even more color options from. A good paint/resin base that is probably what they used or similar to what was used back then.... Jim does his Stoners in this type paint and they look awesome and original! Title: Re: Stoner Gum Machine on CL in my area Post by: rayg on December 20, 2013, 10:57:04 pm Correction... I did use Hammerite paint after I saw Jim do a Stoner in blue with it.
What really makes it pop is when your finish it with clear Here's a link to there site that has a chart of all the colors the carry. http://www.hammerite-paint.com/ |
