Rock-Ola 1464

I'm quite impressed with this, whoever restored it has done a good job.
The vendor mentions a stand, but this should actually be a wall mounted box. He's shown it to it's best advantage, you don't really seee the stand in the video, but there is one photo of it on his photobucket link. I personally think it looks a bit odd on that stand.

Hello Bob,

The 1464, 1484, 1494 and 403 tended to be sited on stands for ease of the operators in small cafe's etc.

As you say they were intended to be wall mounted but in those days holes for Rawl Bolts (up to four of these would been needed) would have to have been drilled using a star drill and a hamer (about 20-30 minutes per hole plus the hammer rash).

I had a stand for a 403 for years until it went in the scrap, have you seen the price for them these days.

As you say a very good jukebox, I will watch it to see its ending price.

Regards
Alan
