   Visited Terry this morning. He has built a very impressive restoration shop on
his mountain property set well back from the house. What a life!  8)
   He is trying to clear out some storage containers, when he opened the doors
here is what was hiding.
   I wish I would have driven a truck  :darn:
 

       I found a machine I just had to have.  :darn:   
       Took the G/F to the greyhound station and returned and removed the front seat of the car so I could carry my machine home. (Is there a cure for this illness)?

Moondawg,

What kind of machine is that????

Brian

       It's a Cavalier 72  Brian.
 
       Also this is his driveway marker..........cool huh?

Way Kewl,
Thanks for the pics!!

Glen,
I really enjoyed our visit today. I'm still cracking up over us stuffing the Cavalier 72 into the passenger seat area of the t-bird. If I hadn't seen it I wouldn't believe it. I realized after you left we never made it inside the house to show you my collection. We'll do it next time.

Ha! unbelievable that that fit in there!.... But I'd have done the same thing!
Yeah we need more pics there Terry... What a nice collection there in storage you have...
How long have you had some of those?....

I've been grabbing machines for about ten years.

I hope you put its seat belt on. I can't believe that machine fit in the car, or how you even got it in there  :jawdrop:

I would have loved to see a video of you guys stuff that in there... wow....

The things we do... :oops: :tounge:

     This would be a proper place to show us all some pictures of the collectoin. Also pic's of the 2 other storage containers I didn't show...and maybe that shop with the 48" Coke button out front.
     Your whole setting is just perfect to some of us city folks, hope you will share.

Terry & Glen

Glen ?  :oh:

I'll post pictures as soon as I get a chance. I was laughing at Glen because he said to me "I hope I don't get pulled over by a cop". I told him that if he does to just offer the cop a coke. LOL

Glen, Were you able to get the machine out without removing the car door?

 :laugh:Now that is FUNNY... I was laughing so hard at the offer him a coke line, that my wife came out of the other room to see if I was ok. :laugh: I can just picture it...

When I was younger I had a 1976 Oldsmobile Delta 88 4 door car.  What a boat that was.  I picked up my second Coke machine, which was a VMC 72 dual chute machine.  I laid it on its side in the back seat and was able to close both doors.  You should've seen my Moms face when me and my friend pulled it out of the car. 

 :darn: I guess desperate times call for desperate measures... Very creative!

I had a '76 Olds 98 and yes they are "land yachts".
I bought my first machine in about '72 (a VMC27) for $15 and I had to wheel barrow it home as my parents did not want me to have it.
