"Psychedelic Money-Grabber" is what ads call this jukebox.
The Psychedelic part of this juke was also the hardest part to find.
There are nine different picture disks at the top and there was an
optional kit that could be added to make the disks transform to different
colors. Finding the three colored wheels was no problem. Finding the
motor and gear took over ten years to find. All of the jukebox parts
people that I spoke with all said that they might have seen
the motor a few decades ago, but no one could come up with one. Finally
one day a search on ebay produced a psychedelic unit with what looked
like the motor. When I received it the motor was shot, but at least
it was a common motor and I now had the gear and mounting bracket.
The motor and two of the disks are pictured below. Several Rock-Ola
500 series wallboxes are also placed throughout the house. |
