This is the way the machine looked when I bought it and how it looks now. It's an Ideal 110. I have been looking for a decent Vendo (still am) and found this one to "practice" on. Thanks to everyone that helped answer some questions on this machine.

Great restore! The hand with a bottle looks nice on the taller machines.

Looks great.  How long did the project take?  Didn't we see the before pic not too long ago?

It took about 16 hours to complete over 3 weeks. Luckly, I had access to the needed tools and equipment.

Excellent job ! ! !

Two questions: Can I use the photo for inclusion in our Soda Machines Section...?
And secondly, can you provide accurate dimension measurements for this model...?

Thanks!
