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. |

Johnie,
The liner and parts look great!
I think you have a excellent sheet metal fabricator!

Thanks guys!, yes, my sheet metal man is a genius! It fits like a glove, now for the expensive part, after the chassis is painted Pepsi blue, is paying to sign painter to do all of the embossing! Ka-ching!  , every side & every thing you see is embossed, including the lids!

It will be worth it John. I think that is the best looking embossed machine made. I hope that one is a keeper. I love the embossing on those. I wish they would have made an 81 with that embossing on the sides. Wouldn't that look cool.

Johnie - I'd be interested to know what you end up paying for the handpainting. My buddy has a guy that does all their shop's work, supposed to be top-notch. Said he'd do the embossed part of my Ideal for $80. |
