Sodaworks said these make cool theme machines. I have seen the ones a lot of you have done and like them. I'd like to do four different ones
I did see a Budweiser one somewhere done in the old school green and yellow I think I will do one of those.
If you guys were going to do some theme machines what would they be?
...and hey is the one on the left missing a door or something???

I was going to jokingly post a Pabst Blue Ribbon machine, but the more I thought of it, the red white and blue they used in the 60's would look really sharp. Sure now it's called 'Yard Beer', but there was a time it was a top seller.
I have always like Josh & Curtis' (Memory Lane Restorations) Frosty machines, and the 1960's Dr. Pepper style , with the bouncy 'Pepper', in a red and white and green is on my want to do list.

Here's a photo of the USC football machine I built for Petey64. I currently have orders for three more different theme machines. I also want to build a Lowe's #48 machine for my shop.

Terry,
I still can't get over how really nice that machine is, even if my
family members are UCLA Fans!  '>
Great Job!!!

Thanks Eric,
I've built quite a few machines but that one was one of my favorites. I had to do quite a bit of research to get the "Fonts", Heisman trophy winners and national championship dates and Rose bowl Victories. The "Tommy Trojan" light up panel was extremely hard to get a hold of due to copyright protection. The only way I was able to obtain it was one of my buddies is a big SC fan and we scanned it from a banner that he had purchased from last years Rose bowl.

Awwwe man!!! I wasn't even thinking ball teams! I was in soda and beer. You just unleashed a world of thought, I'll never decide what to do now... Although in TN I bet some nice UT machines would sell faster than u know what... No wait a minute Titans or maybe Predators... Isn't this music city... I'm done for  '>
Thanks for the great ideas!

Wow! Pat that looks really cool. I think the theme machines are growing on me...
So I'm Thinking 1. Pepsi 2. '60 Pabst (i'm thinking this would be cool too!) 3. Steelers (for my bro) 4. '60 Bud - It may change but for now I like the line up...
Thanks again for the killer ideas  '>
