Post by: memorylane on July 23, 2009, 02:36:11 pm Well here it is, the Keene Coffee Machine I got from Loyd at CoinOp Warehouse, this was a 6 week restoration Myself and Steve just completed and will be on it's way to the WOLF Collection, (Jeff wolf) on Monday. I hope you like it Jeff. I had to think on this one but I like the Theme and colors I used, it looks great! I love this machine.

Post by: collecture on July 23, 2009, 02:51:54 pm Awesome ! 8) Say, what's that half-moon shaped hole on the right side for ? My guess would be coffee stirrers. Nice job Curtis and Steve! Looks great! Jeff - watch out for the Howard Johnson' police! Title: Re: KEENE COFFE RESTORED!

Title: Re: KEENE COFFE RESTORED! Post by: Larry on July 23, 2009, 05:53:54 pm When I saw the original pic from Jeff, I wasn't sure if I would like it. I really like machines that are less flashy. Just the basic original paint styles for me, but I have to admit that the triangular blue mixed with the oarnge really brought out the chrome pieces and enhanced the machine. Very sharp looking. I give it four cool marks. 8) 8) 8) 8)

Title: Re: KEENE COFFE RESTORED! Post by: oldskoolcoinop on July 23, 2009, 11:51:22 pm Does anyone know of another one of these? I love that "Coffee" script on an angle. Graet job Curtis. I like the theme also.
Title: Re: KEENE COFFE RESTORED! Post by: memorylane on July 24, 2009, 07:08:14 am This is the first Keene I have ever seen and would love to find a few more as well. The chrome was done by Jeff's Chrome person, Outstanding job on the chrome work! Best I have ever seen, not cheep but if you want the best. Again thanks for all the kind words, I'll pass them along to Steve as he was as much a part of this restoration as me, we make a good team we have 9 machines in the works that are sold and 4 to get started on , so having that extra person is nice. Lots of cool pixs to come as we finish. Thanks so much.
