I finished a few of my smaller projects this past weekend... First is the base to my U-Select-It Candy Machine, I had the top (main part)  done for a few months, just got around to finishing up the base for ,, decided to go a two toned look so it's not just all blue... Added a litte Chrome Bling Bling along the top ridge.. I think it turned out pretty nice.. Second is my Coke Cleveland Neon Clock, Picked up the clock last fall, Took the whole thing apart, cleaned it, replaced some wiring and repainted the case more of an original Green/Blue Hammertone color. Put it all back together and put in a new repro marquee top sign as it displays better than the original ... Just gotta find wall space now... hmmmm
Thanks for looking...

John...both look real nice!!  I really like the two-tone base on your candy machine.  The clock is just gorgeous as well!  Makes me want to finish up a project or two.   drinking

John

I do like that two tone finish and where did you get the chrome from???

I have my U Select booked into have a pukka Paint Job done next week and have still not
decided on the colours.

I promised my little girl Pink but my little boy wants it done the same colour as the machine on "I Carly". He'd get mega cudos for that at school.... We've been trying to pause TV shots to get a good look at it...

That clock too is awesome... Could only dream of something like that...

Great job, John. That U-Select looks awesome in the paint scheme and the Cleveland Clock is just as nice or better! Like the others, I'd really like to have one someday.  biggrin
