Title: Cavalier 72 & 96 coke machine restoration manual
Post by: on July 31, 2006, 09:28:51 am
I saw this item on eBay, but the seller is no longer selling the items.  I tried a few emails w/o any luck.

Guide on Ebay

The seller states:

PLEASE NOTE: If you buy this manual from me you can email me questions about your machine or the restoration process and I will make every attempt at answering. I have answered oveer 95% of the questions asked me and I recently answered one for a gentleman that purchased a manual 8 years ago. For 1950’s rounded corner Cavalier models CS-72-A and CS-96-A, this manual has 50 pages of information!!! Far more than the other service manuals sold!!!! This restoration manual for the Cavalier 72 and 96 machines has the material I have gathered from 23 years of restoring soda machines. Contains reproduction of the original service manual including installation, bottle loading instructions, exploded views of the C72 & C96 with parts lists and illustrations of the refrigeration unit, bottle stack and other parts. Also included is a reproduction of the refinishing section of the cooler service manual including suggested manufacturer's paint numbers for refinishing the older rounded corner machines. We give you the Dupont Centari paint number we use and why, compressor hints, etc. We give you a LIST OF PARTS SUPPLIERS so you can get items you need for your machine, and a LIST OF BOOKS, PRICE GUIDES AND MAGAZINES about soda machines. If you have a Cavalier 72 or 96 Coke Machine, you will want this restoration manual. Money orders and cashier's checks mailed immediately, personal checks wait 2 weeks to clear. Add $4.55 priority mail and delivery confirmation.

Does anyone know this 'seller 459'  I'd really like to get my hands on one of these guides for my restoration effort.

Click on "Ask seller a question" and ask if they are going to put any more up.  I see them list things regularly on ebay.  You may also want to uncheck the "hide my email address" box.  This way they may deal with you outside of ebay. :;):
