And to be fair to Rick, he didn't try and pass it off as original. That show has only just aired over here. Wonder if he managed to sell it??

I just looked up his website and saw that it is still for sale for $27,000.  He also asks $5500 for restored 55 sliders, which I find a bit high.  lol.

Curtis, your are correct.  I should have inspected the photo of the Victor Grill  more closely before I down loaded it.  Once again, you prove that you are "the man"!!!!

From now on I will stick to what I know.  Stoner candy machines and Seeburg jukeboxes.

BC, we got a couple Seeburg 100s up for auction next weekend.  Not sure what they'll sell for, but if you're interested, let me know and I can either send pics or show you were they are.

100 usually refers to the number of records it can play. The model number  has a letter or letters that will be more helpful

I'll look on the data plate, if I can find it, tonight and let you know.  Is that something that is mounted to the inside or is on outside somewhere?  I did not see any dataplates when I took the initial pics.

I own a restored Victor one door serial number 0034. Found the unit in upstate New York years ago and had it professionally restored. Resides in my game room in Florida. Will try and take some pics and post.

Brian your almost correct, This is what the real Victor Kooler Grill looks like. Your photo you posted of the griller has the wrong doors, all Victor Kooler Grills had Stainless Steel as in the photos of the one I restored.

That my friend is an amazing restoration, impressive !!  wow

       Ken C.------ Please submit a picture of your Victor, gotta' luv those coolers.

       Ron, yes most Victors are embossed but not all. The only off brand I have seen in person was a 3 door 7up embossed but and it looked awesome.
