Very cool, always awesome pulling the ugly parts off and finding that!  Based on the color, I wonder if they just paint bombed the machines then put on the new style sign as a refresh.

That was my guess as well. A kind of bring it into the 60's look. I almost bought this one about a year ago. I might check in and see if he lowered his price if he still has it.

        It's too bad they had to drill holes through the face of those machines to add the signs.
        Not so bad for the one that needs to be restored, but that original will be stuck with it.
        I'll bet Curtis could modify it to become a light-up!  

        Also noticed that some 33's have the VMC dimple on the door and some don't.......... embossed vs generic, solid coin door vs split door,
or one piece main door vs 2 pc (where the stainless strips hide the joint between the top and bottom).
I don't see a pattern.   Anyone have insight to this?

I don't know of a pattern for the dimple but I have seen some on the upper left half corner also which I don't understand why they would ever have put some there?

So I did the plug the pieces of wire into an extension cord trick on the light blue 33, it fired right up but never got cold, just blew warm air,

Sure this happens all the time but I'm a cooler guy, can anybody tell me what my next step should be?
