Wow! I have been working on my jukebox for the past couple of weeks and I have to admit. It's beyond my capabilities. I am getting nowhere.

Now seeing yours and what you have done. That's just amazing. It looks new. I I definitely recognize the talent you have.

Thanks for sharing the pictures and i look forward to seeing pictures of the completed project.

Thnsk for the compliments guys. Here's a a few more pics of today progress. Pretty much done except for the dome glass. When I picked up the chrome it looked so good I left them the dome frame to be re-anodized.It will probably be 3-4 weeks before getting it back. This is my first full blown juke restore and boy they are much more involved/costly than drink machines.

Looks great.  Maybe I will tackle mine after all.

Can't wait to see the final pics.

Couple questions...
How did you get the multi-color effect down in front where the speakers are?
My R has a light blue flourescent 4 ft bulb behind the selection panel.
What kind of logo/decal/plate goes on the record cover? Mine looks like something
was there but removed leaving damage (roughness). I don't know what was
there.
Thanks.

Pbdude--if you look at the last batch of pictures posted by johnny you will see the multicolor diffuser in the first picture.  It mounts below the light  above the grille.  You can probably get that from Victory Glass.  The one for my Seeburg Model 161 is blue and white.  That extra color really makes the waterfall chrome on the front of that R really pop!

Pinballdude, The correct diffusor for a R is all blue  but I like the multicolor so I put a J diffusor in. It is a direct fit. like mznb1u said you can get it Victory Glass. The mech cover should have a big emblem. If  you go back to my first post there is a link to my photo album. there should be a good pic in there. You can also get them from VG although they are not excact to original.
