Title: Weekend Buying Spree. Happy Hunting. Post by: Funtronics on April 21, 2014, 07:43:46 am Well I had a busy and awsome weekend picking. It's not often that you get a chance to buy an original one door Victor cooler plus a restored two door Victor with the original top. :jawdrop: I had to hock the house and kids, but I couldn't let them slip away. The Ideal 35 is an original restored embossed Royal Crown done up excellent. The Ideal 35 Orange Crush machine is also done up nice, but is not embossed. The VMC Pepsi machine was nicely restored also. The big 48" porcelain button is in really good shape with only a few chips and a little faded. Started at 4:30 in the morning to drive to obtain these machines and didn't get home till late, so it made for a really long road trip. :upside:
