Looking to buy a 1960s Pepsi or Coke fridge as per the attachments. Doesn't need to work! Doesn't even need a motor!
-
Mate - the Pepsi ones suck compared to the coke ones. Coca Cola have always had better design than Pepsi.
What about the slim retro looking ones that the shops have in them now? - I love these and apparently, when they are taken out of service Coca Cola come along, take em away and dump them so they dont end up on the collectible market - friggin wierd huh??
But i do know a shop just south of me that has these for sale

Thanks for that Angelo,
That one is only 1 hour South but she looks pretty rough, have been watching it and had been in contact with the guy selling. It is missing some real tough parts to replace.
Still muchly appreciated the tip! ^^^

Yeah it was a nice fridge but it was taking up valuable pinball space... and also my wife hated the look of the coke boys (sprite boy) face on the side of the cabinet.

Sure am....something different to restore. Will have this professionally resprayed.
Just ordered a heap of new/reproduction parts for it from the US....the market for old drink vending machine for parts looks bigger than pinball!
Also she isn't working but that is OK (for now)
