Great topic Pat!
I have the glass door and kick plate from the great V-56 RT part out sitting on the bench. Will start the cleaning/polishing of those Sat. Have old buddy's showing up in a couple of weeks. Part of room and board is moving my USS-64 from the shop into the basement. It is apart so shouldn't be too bad.

Scored a bunch of needed parts for my Serro Scotty camper. That will be the next project.

I'm currently trying to get a few video games fixed up.. My Tempest crapped out and I just spent $135 to get the main board rebuilt, and there is something else wrong as well... I was gifted a Millipede that isn't currently working.. I'm also working on a Sega Outrun mini that wasn't working... That is currently limping along.. needs a monitor..darn    and I just shopped out my pin with all new bulbs, rubber, and a good wax..

Pat,  Yeah, I promised pics, I'll  post a few in a new thread.  blush
 Project wise ,  I want to finish the Seeburg HF100G, then on to a RT 56 I bought  with plans to  resell after restoring. Waiting in the wings is a V81D, a Pepsi slider,  a Wurly 1015 OMT (45's of course), and  now that I've got my friend  (co-worker and  roadtrip buddy)  hooked, I'll be helping to restore his jukebox, and  helping find a roundtop or squaretop for him.

Hey Pat,
Where do I begin, I have been restoring seven or eight soda machines, a GE monitor top refrigerator that came from Johnie G, a 1971 Honda motorcycle, five old Volkwagen Beetles, a coca cola marque sign from a theater from down by Detroit, house remoldeling, and I know there are a few more projects but I just can't think of them right know.

Well I'm finally motoring on with my Jacobs 50. Has only taken two years. The bodywork is all complete and I put power to the electrics for the first time in 40 yrs the other day. The coin and vending mech seem to be working just fine. All that really needs to be sorted now is the re-fridgeration.

Once that has been done I need to decide about my Westy 44... Do I leave it as is. Perfectly respectful or do I do a complete restore. (I know you guys wouldn't bother but a soda machine is a soda machine over here)

I've also restored about 20 vending machinesover the winter and trying to build up a stock to take to some shows to see if I can make a little money.
