Hello, Looking for opinions on the value of a VMC 33, Very nice original condition, always stored indoors, everything is working. A very presentable machine the way it is.
Thanks

Asking price is $800.00. I do not know how to post pictures, sorry. Can you help me with something? I think I have seen Coke VMC33's that have a 2 piece aluminum front door on the main door while others have just the main sheet metal door that is painted red. The one I am looking at does not have the aluminum doors. Thanks |

There were two 33's
First one produced shortly after the Dual 27 had split doors
Second one produced had the solid single door (aka 33-3D) - Coke model was not embossed and there were Pepsi and 7UP embossed versions.
33-3D is considered more desirable, but $800 seems high (to me) for the Coke version.

There are two prices, the price you are willing to pay when you want to turn around and sell at a profit and the price you are willing to pay for something you really like and plan on keeping for years to come.
I paid $800.00 for a really nice, working and very presentable Pepsi Vendolater 27B. And I have no intentions of selling it anytime soon. Which is probably a good thing because I am not sure I could get that much out of it.
So you got ask yourself, "do you really need a VMC 33."

I would think that in today’s market, one should be able to get a decent 3D-33 Coke between 350- 600.
Sort of related, but my 3D-33 is at the body shop now and I'm doing it as a fantasy (Fanta?) Orange Crush. Found a local upholstery guy who likes Orange Crush and will trade for a job on my Aussie right-hand drive Falcon (Mad Max base care). This machine should look very cool. Will be posting pics.

R C Kid,
You hit the proverbial nail on the head!
I do not really need the machine, it's one of those things, "I want the VMC- 33 for my shop to go along with my gas pumps, signs, etc". I just like "stuff" from the 50"s in my shop. Your observation is exactly where I am.
Regards
