Yep, it's a VF56d/sap (Pepsi) from the very-early 1960's , this one has the lightup sign option, while most had a small 4 inch square 3-D Pepsi medalion for a sign, ( see my posting in post 60's machines) they go from anywhere between $200-400.00 mine fell in the middle price-wise. they're nice machines, but be sure it's complete as some of the trim parts are only two model years in production & hard to find replacements, but many of the main parts, shelves, bottle door, compressor assy's are interchangable with some later models ( ohter VF56/VF81's & V63/V90's.

The upper hinge was sprung . What can be done to repair this and does the door liner and cabinet line have to be removed to adjust this ? It looks like the upper right side of the main door was hit and shoved the hinge to the left . Where do you get the special tool to remove the screws, Ace hardware ? Any help is appreciated .

if you mean the special clutch-headed screws ( looks like a bow-tie) you can find the drivens ( for a 1/4" driver set) at sears hardware and I've also found them at Lowes hardware, they come in 3 sizes,

Are the hinges welded on or bolted on ? I need to align one.

It looks like the upper right side of the main door was hit and shoved the hinge to the left .
I might suggest a 10# sledge hammer and shove that hinge back to the right. Probably would work better with the door lifted and removed first. |

I guess a better question would have been how does the main door come off?  |

I think it just lifts off; however, if your top hinge is bent it may require a little more effort to lift off the hinge pin.

It should just lift up of the hinges. If its stuck try this, open the door 90 degrees and lean tilt the machine forward against the door. This will usually force the door up and off the hinges.
