Title: This is the New Addition to the family...
Post by: Poptop on April 11, 2008, 09:40:02 pm
Cavalier CS-64C
Serial #:324424

Any Suggestions to get the gold tone back?
Anyone know where I can get new-repro wiring diagrams
for the interior of the door?

Here is my "basement"...the legends Cafe!

Nice machine and great basement! For the gold since it is supposed to be part gold and part chrome I would use gold spray paint. It originally was gold anodized so it was an off gold color anyway so the spray paint looks correct. Mask off what you can that supposed to be chrome and anything that you cant mask you can remove the gold with paint thinner. It will look nice when it is done. I love the early cav64's they are by far nicer than the later models.

Nice machine.  I like the old postcards on the wall too that are in your photo album.  Are those places that are important to you/  My wife and I have some framed too...her high school in a 1940's/50's card, the county courthouse, etc.

The postcards are all local.

I went to ebay, and was going to just "copy/print" then I
found this guy on there who collected postcards and grouped
them by state and county.

$5.00 for the cd, $20 for printer photo paper!  Everyone who
visits just stares at them...real nice.

I just love the coca cola them, so my 53 brockway

is dual themed for various show.

Great forum...super group of people.
