Hi Guys,
I have just picked up my cabinet from the panel shop tonight.
The inside is straight white tinter, and the outside is Candy Apple Red.
I have put it on the stand I have made for it some time back.
I will post more pics as it comes together
Cheers Angelo

Really like the colour you have chosen - this is a neat and tidy juke ^^^
-
Nice, Angelo !

-
That is looking sweet Ang, huury up and put it back together, cant wait for the pics.

Hi guys,

Cheers Angelo

-

-

Cheers Angelo

Never seen one like that before. That's really cool. I could handle one of those, considering the space it takes up versus a traditional juke.
Are they common or rare?
I've seen the wallboxes, but never a complete wall mount juke.
-
From what I can find out, there are only 1700 of these 1484 produced, around 1900 of the 1494 and only 6 of the 403 ever made.
I am on the hunt for a wall box for my unit (Rock Ola 1555) but the only ones I can find are around 900 euro plus freight...
I am also after a coin mech to suit my juke box, it is much physically larger than a pinball mech, so if anyone has one for sale, let me know.
I am still putting this this together, damn it takes some time to get it just right!
Cheers Angelo

Angelo - Got a part number for the Coin Mech ?
I have a few boxes of coin mechs and I did see some Jukebox mechs. What do they look like ?
-
Nino,
I have the bracket that it sits in, according to the manual, the part number is 33347 Slug Rejector!

I just found this on ebay, could be the one maybe?
I can get the bracket to you if you want that it sits in..
Cheers Angelo

OK - I'll have a look tomorrow. Dad gave me a box he found with two AMI coin mechs. One looks VERY similar.
-
Cheers mate!
-
Ill have a look for you angelo i have a few Juke mechs around here some place if i find em ill post some pics
-
Thanks Daniel!
I just fired up the juke box!
All good, better turn it down now getting a bit late....
Cheers Angelo
-
I've found one very similar to the eBay coin mech - model number 94185. I'll post a picture later. It is labelled "Australia", which may explain the difference ?
Post a pic when the camera battery has charged !
-
Very similar, Ang ;
-
Well the jukebox has made it upstairs now!
The only thing left to do is add the coin mech and also paint the interior cover panel in straight white tinter to suit the other interior pieces.
The new title strips are installed now and I need to start applying the wax to the candy finish as it is still the same as we sanded it back with the 2000.
I saw the jukebox for the first time today in direct sunlight, and still have a horn over it!
Cheers Angelo
-
More pics....
-
That is awsome Angelo might have to paint mine Candy apple red. (Its ok Nino i wouldnt do that)
-
This looks simply stunning and is a work of art!.
That candy red looks fantastic and would have been quite a job to paint. Full marks to the spraypainter and full marks to the restorer!
-
That's simply STUNNING, Angelo #*#
I'll send you the coin mech this week - just snowed under at work and I can't get to the post office.
