Hi Josh, CALL me, you got my cell number. If not E-mail me at memorylane@myactv.net How was your find?? I'll walk you through the Stoner restoration if you want to do one. Bcharlton's Stoners look great and when he first called me, he new nothing about them. I helped him from start to finish and now he's become a monster. You know it's only a matter of time before his wife or the boss throughs him out. So Brian, stop the madness!!!

Curtis;
As if it could not get any worse. Here is my Stoner Jr in mint green. I thought I would hate the color but as always, you were correct. It looks awesome. I even had the front bezel chrome plated.
I am now finishing up a Stoner 180 done in true candy red using "House of Colors" base coat clear coat. It is a high end racing automative paint. It looks amazing because it looks as if it actually changes color. Pictures will follow in the next couple of weeks.
Curtis:
Call me because I need to place an order.

Here are a few cool photos of a sign I found on a garage in the next town over from me. I kept trying to buy this sign for two years, each time I passed buy I would stop and make the man an offer and each time he would tell me when he closed his doors he would call me. I started out offering him $250.00 I went into his garage one day and told him that this was the last time I would make him an offer, because I told him I was looking at another sign in another town. I told him I would give him $2000.00 Cash. He said CASH, I said cash! He then asked if I had a way of getting it off the building. Now I already had a customer in line for this sign, all's I had to do was restore it. Now look how nice it came out.

That is a Cool sign - I need one of those for my building - 1st time you have showed me these photos. I may need to hunt a sign like that and have you re-do.
Bought two machines from Loyd at Coin Op warehouse today - He has a Cool Website - Unreal how much he has in stock - Loyd's Coin Op Warehouse. Check it out. - I like finding new places on the internet to view Coin - Op stuff - I always enjoyed Vintage Vending's Website - they had a lot of cool stuff. - Curtis - I am looking forward to your new site, put all your photos on. Thanks Alan H  '>

This one is rough but this is just a few miles from my house. I am trying to get the nerve to go in and ask about it but it isn't in the best of neighborhoods. What do you think of this. Is it worth trying?

Josh, You have to go for it . Whats the worst thing that can happen
they can say No! So just keep hitting them once a month till they get tired of you and say yes.
Its way to cool to let it rot away.
