Someone told me they have a "transitional 81", which they said was only made for a year or so and was actually a transitional model between round tops and square tops. Has anyone heard of such a machine, and is it rare? Any idea as to year or value? Thanks.

...This machine will not be for sale. It is mine and will be my first restoration when I get home!! I cannot wait!!! I told my soon to be new wife about it and believe it or not she is excited. She can't wait to help work on it! Yes - what happened? Did your fiancee back out of the project? |

No I am going to. He just asked if I had anything to trade and thats all that I have. I would like to have the W44. They are not popular but I like them. I finally told him I don't want to sell the 81. Its too nice.

It was actually a W44 and a parts 42T. I want to buy the machines but I really want to keep my Transitional 81. Thats such a cool machine. I think I am going to do it in RC Cola instead of Faygo though.

If you're going to do it as an RC Cola, Then you need this cool 3D sign! soda machine is included with the price of the sign!  ( or was it the other way around) yes it has a changer coinmech, it's just not installed/shown in the machine in this picture http://detroit.craigslist.org/okl/clt/1596837985.html |
