Title: Some more nice Rusty Gold!!!!! Near the SF Giants!!!!!!
Post by: TheGarbageHunter on March 28, 2014, 10:24:02 am
Scored this little guy last night. This hunt took me in to a little sketchy hood near the old stadium where the SF Giants used to play. I would never of thought that a 1950 coke machine would be hanging out in that area of the city. This deal almost did not happen since the 2 fellas selling the machine looked like 2 characters from Boys N the Hood Movie. But my gut and nerves of rust felt it was a legit deal. Thank God it was!!! Those 2 guys turned out to be down to earth and very polite. They even loaded it for me. Picked it up like a bag of groceries and threw it in back of my truck. I usually strap machines down before I leave but was more than happy to just close the tail gate and leave.

It was all good!!!

I had the same experience picking up a Cavalier 51 from the mean streets of Erie PA.  Shady neighborhood but the people had just comeback from church and were cooking Sunday dinner.  Mine even had the same bottle rack on it!
