Title: Vendo 81d finally gets a new life
Post by: coke_and_stuff on August 30, 2005, 04:36:28 pm
Ive been working on my 81D with a buddy for the last 6 weeks almost every evening for a few hrs. I finally got it home last night, still alot of work to go but she is slowly coming along. I would like to say thanks to Terry for the awesome original coin entry bezel. I havent even really cleaned or polished it yet, just removed the stickers.
I still need a cooling unit anybody???

I did about 3/4 of the prep work he did the final paintwork, It turned out nice. He builds streetrods and is a awesome painter.

Would think Randy would have something in that huge pile of machines there in Ozark... Would
one of his square tops cooling units work?... Or how about Global Compressors here on this site?
Looks really nice Joey! Needs to be in the before and after photo gallery.

Hello Joey,
The 81 looks great. I knew you would be totally satisfied with the coin bezel. I plan on painting my 81 next week.

Hey Joey
Eric at Global can build you one out of brand new as-original parts. He does very nice work on refrigeration equipment.

Are we still on for Saturday night? I am going to have to record the game because I will be attending the Citadel-Chas Southern game here in town.
Go Tigers!
By the way the V81 looks great! How did he do the embossed painting?

Howdy Kevin,
Sure We're still on. I have a six pack of Dublin DP here waiting on the outcome of the game but I have a feeling the Ags are going to eat the tigers for lunch. I look forward to recieving some of that local brew ginger ale you mentioned. I'm going to try to get the tivo machine to record the game.

Lettering was one of those funtronics decals. its very hard to tell it is a sticker, It has been cleared over and looks flawless. I'll get ahold of Randy in Ozark about a cooling unit, possibly Eric. Does Eric have original units restored?

Eric uses new compressors and new old stock evaporators from what I gather. He may have an original laying around to restore. Give him a call. He's a great guy and is easy to work with.
