Great story Eric.  '>  
       A guy here in town was running a one man bodyshop, and has to move out of town by next week.  He knows I like old machines  and  asked if I was interested in some stuff he needs to unload.
        He wanted $40.00 for a complete 8 pull Stoner candy machine.   $20.00 for a Pepsi Ideal 55 with a good compressor missing rack etc.  Another $20.00 bought an old rounded chest freezer made by Nash- Kelvinator. This is rather small for a freezer and the inner liner is made of COPPER ! It would look nice restored.
         First day I had it it froze a cup of water in a few hours, but by yesterday morning the compressor was hot and seized up.  Bummer.   It has no condensing coils or fan, not sure what keeps the compressor cool?'>  Probably uses a freon we can't get anymore. Can anyone offer advice or direction?     Glen
