I forgot the story? 10 bucks? who looks at a cool vintage machine like this, even if faded, and says 10 bucks? Common sense even if I knew nothing about antiques to ask for something more than that? but Good for you.. I actually think you over paid.. looks more like a 9.00 machine to me biggrin
I'll bet you could put that on the market and at least make 20.. maybe 21 bucks on it now.. double your money! smile

John, this machine was in a local hardware store, buried in a back storage shed.  I got to know the owner over the past few years and he basically gave it to me.  I'll get some inside photos ASAP.

Nice job. Was this your first one? It takes a lot of work to do a V 110.

Rod,

This was the 2nd complete restoration I have done.  I did a Vendo 56 (can machine from the 60s) previosuly, but that cannot come close to a 110.  I never want to do a 110 again.  It was "interesting."  My next project is a Cavalier 51, which shouldn't be too bad.

HAHAHA!  Sorry, Larry.  27 bucks won't touch it.  Pawn Stars and Rick's Restorations say I can get $7k for it. 

The center of the door wasn't rusted.  I was fortunate.  The rust on this thing was all surface stuff.

Not yet, Dan.  He is usually gone from the hardware store by the time I go past it on my way home.  However, I am off this Monday and Tuesday, so I am going to try to stop by with some photos and an invitation for him to stop over

I love those vendo 110s. I had one once and I wish now that I never sold it.

It looks like you had a very good base from which to base your restoration on.

Thanks, guys.  Now, it's on to the Cavalier 51.

Also noteworthy, and as a reminder, this machine was painted by the local Vo-Tech student.  They charged just for materials ($399), plus some pizza.  For those of us who don't paint, this was a GREAT alternative.
