I found this guy in his 70's who worked for coke and pepsi his whole live ( not at the same time)  He has alot of old machines in great condition and some newer ones in not so great condition.  He has 4 vendo 23's in mint working condition. He is asking 750.00 each, is that too high? Do you all see anything else I should buy from him?  

he is asking 2k for the wesington house on the left

I am not too much into the bottles and other collectables but he has over 5 thousand bottles, thousands of signs and anything you can think of and its all for sale.  He has a ton of coke bottles from the early 1900's too

You really need to be local to dig through all the stuff.  I can ask him next time I visit.  

also can an admin fix the title of the thread?

Where is he located? I am interested in that Pepsi Gullwing and that small Pepsi cooler in your first picture, if you are not? I believe it is a true. I think he might be high on the 23's, but other guys woudl know for sure on that.

I would ship that Gullwing and small True in a heartbeat. Is he selling everything? Hard to find guys like that in their late years that have kept all those things from their working days!

That small double dot Pepsi cooler is sweet.  Hard to tell what roundtops are peeking out back there.  In the last pic it looks like there is a USS can/bottle stack laying across the top of some machines. That might be useful to someone.

I'm not into old bottles but if he happens to have any old soda cans I would be very interested in them.

This True Cooler is smaller than the N-416 I have listed but can be seen in a 7-Up version by clicking on the first "Unknown" in the True Coolers Section.

These DO NOT show frequently, so someone needs to grab this, if not just for resale at some point ! ! !

Jim,

I am trying to get it. I have always wanted a True this size. Problem is, the guy never called me back! Hopeful that squaretop will help me, as he knows this guy and has been over there a few times. Let's hope I can bring them home!!!!  '<img'>  '<img'>  '<img'>

Ha! Nice machine! I talked to the guy in Florida today. Let's just say, it will take some time to get a deal done. He is a really nice old guy, but wants a ton for his machines. Wants $1500 on the Gullwing and over 8k on the 1 door True. I can get him down, but need to do my homework. I need to find the market value of that 1 door. Does anyone know or care to guess? He says it is not embossed and has a logo screened on. It has been restored. I want both coolers, but it will take awhile to get through to him.
