Hello all.I hope someone can help me on here.I have recently bought a Cavalier CS-244-C or a C5-244-C and a LaCrosse mdl.169.The Cavalier machine is Coke and I bought both these items at a auction.When I plugged the coke machine up it started working and cools great.But are they worth restoring.The machine has drink a coke on the side and a plastic front that says drink coca cola with a light green border.Most the aluminum is in good shape and the paint is good for the most part except at the bottom.It's starting to rust heavly.I can't get into the machine yet becasue there was no key.I also have a Nehi,Says that on the sides and has a royal crown plastic piece in the front.I bought at the same auction and I got one key with it but only opens the change door.This machine is in great shape needs a good cleaning but the cord is shut up in the door so I don't know if it works or not.PLease I hope someone can give me a value and tell me where I can get keys for these machines.Thanks
Rob

do you have pictures to post? and is the Nehi a "slider"? (Ideal/Glasco)or an upright machine?(one key for the coin box and another seperate one for the side/loading door) insofar as the rust question depends if its just heavy surface rust or rot-out from water soaking the insulation ("belt-line rust out") I'd really like to see the machines, you got me curious
