Can someone help me identify this machine / the value of it?
This is my first coke machine purchase and can get this one for $75 - $100.

It seems to be complete.  My dad and I want to "restore" it and put it in the bar I am building in my basement. (so I am sure that I will have lots of questions).

It has the original key, the coin mech works, and the compressor runs keeping bottles ice cold.

Also, is the woodgrain vinyl sticker supposed to be on the door?  It is painted red underneath.

Thanks.  Eric

Hi Eric and welcome to the site!  I'm not the square top expert here, but there are several guys that will likely post soon.  From what I have seen, that is a great deal for that machine.  Yes, that one was likely all red, and the woodgrain added later.  They look MUCH better in red!  Since it cools and vends, you are doing well.  Those are the biggest considerations when buying a machine, though you can fix most things with help from the folks here!

Hello Eric,
Welcome to the board! Great machine and a very good price. The woodgrain should come off with a heat gun if you want to go that route. Let us know if you have any questions.

 biggrin   Welcome to the site! & Yes, I'd say it's a very good deal on a completed and working machine.  I'd loose the woodgrain too!   tounge

Thanks guys.
I picked up this machine today for $75.

First thing I am going to do is remove the woodgrain vinyl sticker.

Hi and welcome! I started collecting V-63's in December of 2007...now I have about 10! That is an awesome price for a running and driving machine. Definately ditch the wood grain, I am curious about the bottle rack.... There is a hole on the top of yours that I have never seen before, could you get a close up pic of maybe the top two or three rows including that hole? I can't tell if its another type that I have not seen or something that somebody cut to try to mount a light in.
