Title: Coke Sign with a Twist
Post by: SGM on February 18, 2008, 12:36:31 am
I don't intend to try and sell this machine and beings it's my first project machine I thought I would change a few things from it's original state.  The Coca Cola sign on the right is the original one, I took ideals from different Coca Cola signs from over the years and came up with the one on the left.  I think it turned out ok and gives it a personal touch, hope I haven't broken any restorer codes or offended anyone by doing so?

That looks great! Don't worry on square tops you can do what you want. Since they have removable signs you see machines done in all sorts of themes. You can see my avatar is of a Frosty Root Beer that I did. What is the machine it is going on?

I think your sign looks much nicer than the plain original...

Thanks guys, I appreciate the support.  I have a few other twists that I'm doing with my CSS-12-96J machine that I will post when complete.

Thanks again,
Randy

      It looks nice with 3 colors and still retains 1960's slogans.
 Even the Coca Cola police would approve ( I think)
