Title: Another find of the week!! I found a Juke!! Post by: loman4ec on March 16, 2009, 08:50:20 pm Well all this talking about jukes I started looking for one myself. Today I found a Seeburg M100C for $1000. I am pretty sure thats a good deal. Its 100% complete and works but needs restored. The cabinet is great the only problem is the dome is cracked but they repop the glass. Its about and hour from my Grandpa so he is going to go pick it up. Is $1000 with no shipping good in today's market?

The dome is reopped, Victory glass (victoryglass.com) carries, but be ready for sticker shock. Hey, welcome to the Hot wax club. I'm going to be helping restore a C this summer among other projects. I'll share stories when you start on yours. The pilasters should be white, so either they were replaced, or it was a bar machine and that s 5- yrs of dirt and cigarette smoke Title: Re: Another find of the week!! I found a Juke!! Post by: sodaworks on March 16, 2009, 09:10:19 pm Good find Josh,
I have a restored Seeburg C as well. The pilasters are avail. from Victory glass as well. Title: Re: Another find of the week!! I found a Juke!! Post by: loman4ec on March 16, 2009, 09:17:42 pm Thanks. I am really excited. They were asking $2500 and I convinced them to go for $1000. Its been on craigslist for a long time listed ad and no calls at all in months so I got it cheep. The pilasters are metal so they have been replaced at sometime in its life. They would need replaced anyway. Yep it is complete and she said they put it in the garage 3 years ago and before that it was working and playing in their house. They had plans to restore it but never got to it. Really nice people. They are even throwing in a box of 45's and a manual they bought on the internet.

Title: Re: Another find of the week!! I found a Juke!! Post by: BrianB on March 17, 2009, 05:21:52 am Awesome score Josh, $1000 for a working C in nice condition is a good price. Let us know when you get around to restoring it!
Title: Re: Another find of the week!! I found a Juke!! Post by: bubba on March 17, 2009, 05:29:39 am Dave... Josh posted a Q100... I've got a Q160, which is the same thing just more records.. Mine will do 45rpm and mini 33 1/3rd rpm... Right now it won't do any.. Here is mine.. The records play vertical on this and it can play both sides..

Post by: bcharlton on March 17, 2009, 08:08:18 am Here is the current condition of my 2 seeburg Cs. I already have one restored for my basement malt shop. I should have these done by 2011 with a little luck.
Enjoy. Brian Title: Re: Another find of the week!! I found a Juke!! Post by: SIGNGUY on March 17, 2009, 08:27:40 am Nice Juke Josh, you will be busy when you get back! Love the 50's era jukes!!! I have a G unit, all original, not redone and in near perfect condition... I paid 1500 for it I believe 6 years ago... but at that time, I couldn't find anything for that kind of price in working condition... so I was happy.
Title: Re: Another find of the week!! I found a Juke!! Post by: David D on March 19, 2009, 09:54:05 pm Let us know if you need any help restoring it. I picked up a Seeburg B several years ago for $350, rebuilt the amp, receiver,pin bank and just about everything else. It took some time but it works perfectly, they are great machines.
