Nice little Cav USS 64. Was indoors its whole life - nice clean original. Need to clean the glass on the bottle door, but otherwise it is really clean and 100% functional. Thanks everyone for the suggestions on model. I wanted something to vend both cans and bottles and I think this will do nicely.
Tina even likes it but says the wood grain has to go!

Glad to see you got it, looks exactly like the one I got from Annapolis. The inside of the coin door is white, which means under the woodgrain is also white. I have had some that are black primer. I score around the Cavalier logo on the bottom with a razor before I pull off the woodgrain, then it stays when you peel it off, looks better in my mind.
I had posted some photos of my labeling system before, but the old posts don't have photos anymore, so I'll put them here again. I hot-glued small round (3/4") magnets from Home Depot or Michaels to each of the stacks, then you can just stick bottle caps to them to label. I bought a whole bunch and keep the extras inside the door to swap out.

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |
