Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001... Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan.

Red Green could make a canoe out of it with a couple of rolls of duct tape.

I'm guessing that the V83 is not a very well liked machine.

I like them. I remember one being restored by the guys at Coca-Cola for one of the Big Wigs at Coke.This was back in the eighties. I eventually found one for myself and bought it for a measly $100.00.
I will eventually get around to restoring it. Of course it will never be worth much. I guess that's why I haven't got around to working on it.

I have a guy 10 blocks from me begging me to buy his 83 for very liitle - I think he would have to pay me to take it off of his hands - but that's my two cents....

My first introduction to this world was with a V83 that someone gave me.. big machine and not very practical for home use.

I'll still buy a Vendo 83. I am just not going to pay through the nose for the honor of doing so. The exterior cabinet will work as a replacement for any 110 I run across that may be a little rusty around the belt line. And they don't look all that bad. I relate it to the tri five chevys getting all the praise during the 70's while the 58 chevys got sent to the bone yards, guess what, now the 58's are in demand and because of their early demise there aren't so many left. Ok, maybe that's a stretch.
