It took me awhile but I finally got my stoner theatre open. It is pretty nice on the inside. I wonder why there are wood blocks in some of the openings where candy bars would have been. It looks complete. Why are some of holders red?

I think I will restore it to the original green hammertone color. Any other ideas?

The serial number is 53SM21 480

Thanks for all your help

The red represents every fifth shelf.  Easier for counting.

Hammertone green is cool, but I'm partial to yellow and red.

Congrats on getting your machine open, that's great!

I personally would restore it to the original color. It seems like you see more of them "tricked out" than you see originals these days. Maybe that would be a more original idea just to keep it original..... biggrin

When it comes right down to it though, it's your machine. Do with it what you will!

Go with a cool candy color like mint green or coral.  Here are a couple of mine.

BC's machines look great but I have to vote on the keep it original side.  I like the hammertone green--I guess because that is the color that I remember them being when I was a kid!
