I'll have to look at my Cav 64 tomorrow on the sign :smile:. Pat Title: Re: Got my 1st machine--Cavalier CSS-64 Post by: MoonDawg on May 25, 2008, 10:24:23 am To remove the plexiglass sign, open the coin door and remove 2 screws from
the bottom of the sign frame, then pry it out from the bottom since there are 2 locating pins at the top. Title: Re: Got my 1st machine--Cavalier CSS-64 Post by: dr galaga on May 25, 2008, 10:47:03 am Looks like you got a good deal there.

These machines look great with a fresh coat of paint and new decals. Check this out. This is the exact same machine as yours and it once started out looking a lot like your machine.
Title: Re: Got my 1st machine--Cavalier CSS-64 Post by: Judd7 on May 26, 2008, 11:40:54 am Thanks for the help on the sign.Does Wal-Mart sell that bulb size or is that a speciality bulb(no markings at all on mine).Already have taken shelves out--cleaned and hammerpainted them.They look great!!I'm sure I will have tons of questions to come later.Again--THANKS!!
J.D. Also, what is it worth in present condition?Not going to sell,just wondered.

Enjoy your machine Title: Re: Got my 1st machine--Cavalier CSS-64 Post by: Judd7 on January 29, 2009, 11:10:42 am Believe it or not,the woodgrain doesn't bother me.If I get sick of it at sometime I'll take it off.

My USS 64 was my first machine and is my everyday user machine. It still has the original finish and woodgrain and I am going to keep her that way.
