Coin Box
The coin box had some rust but getting to it was a bit of a puzzle. There are little screws holding that bundle of wiring to the box. Those were easy enough to remove.
But those two black wires that pass into the box through a grommet near the center go to the coin counter. So the only way to disassemble this was to cut the wire ties and push the two coin counter pins out of the harness. After I did that I was able to slide the wires through the hole and remove the coin counter.
There's also a service panel attached to the back of the coin box using rivets. Only option was to drill those out:
Finally have it apart and you can see there was some surface rust along the bottom, especially up front. There's also a bucket that slides into this (you can just see it on the left) which had a bit of rust around the bottom.
I could try to soak these in rust remover and paint but I've decided to just have them powder coated. I dropped them off yesterday.
