Cavalier Restorer

[jah123]

I'm on the east coast and looking for a someone who can do a first class full restoration of an early 60s square top Coke Cavalier machine. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Anybody have any experience with Alan Huffman of Antiquities Vending Company?

Thank you.  I know quality of work varies but I'm really interested in a first class restoration so I appreciate the recommendation.

I appreciate the good recommendations, it sounds like Curtis at Memory Lane is the way to go.  I'm curious why nobody mentioned Alan Huffman at Antiquities Vending?  He has a professional looking website and seems to have done a lot of restorations.  He's actually closer to me although that would have little influence my decision.  Good recommendations are the basis for selecting someone.

There are several people that have had bad times here with Alan Huffman. He seems to have a hard time getting machines finished in the same century as promised.

That was very diplomatic Josh...

Thanks, that's good to know.  I thought that might be the case because I saw a post on another forum that referred to some negative comments on this forum concerning Antiquities Vending but I could never find anything.  If anybody on here still has a machine with Alan I'd be interested in talking to them, private message would be fine.  In the mean time, I'm going to email Curtis.
