Awesome to see the step-by-step process...  Beautiful machine!

Did the shelves get painted or just cleaned up?

Every piece completely disassembled and blasted and then powder coated.

Looks Great... I'm still on the fence on what do do with mine... I like it all white , but I also love the contrast of the 7up Green and white machines..
Guess I'll just have to buy another one and have both! biggrin

Carl has completed the restoration and it is being packaged and ready to ship. The wife should see it some time next week I suppose. I can't wait to see it when I get home in January. I have to get that new shop built (50's Texaco station) next year so it has a nice place to sit.
