1960 Rock-Ola 1484 wall mount juke box
« on: December 08, 2009, 11:45:01 PM »
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

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.
