Micheal,

As far as locating parts or decals, I would check in the Parts Suppliers Section and contact them for your needs.

I'm not sure what info your looking to gather, but I would recommend acquiring a manual since will have everything you should need to kow about the model...

Thanks Jim info apprecated guess the info i'm, trying to gather mostly is finding a pic so I'll know what it looked like when it frist came out and what year it was made in . i've been looking for a manual that seems to be one of my problems i've checked most places on net but can't find anyone that has a manual for this particular machine. any more suggestions all help appreciated. Thanks Micheal

Take a look at the following post for pics on what I think might be a similar machine:  http://soda-machines.com/cgi-local/discussions/ikonboard.cgi?act=ST;f=3;t=437

It's model # is  HA56E and the dimensions are similar. If they're a match and you'd like more pics (sides for instance) let me know.

Any luck on finding a value?  I'd like to know what they are going for too.
