       Thanks all!  The neon was made from a nice original 1963 fishtail sign but was professionally altered at some point in time. I originally bought it for resale but it lights up my entire store 24 hrs a day so it is a keeper now.
       The 81 has a modern compressor which works fine but has had a late model  39 evaporator installed, so the bottom shelf no longer fits and the lines were soldered very poorly so that's why the leaks. I have the right parts to fix all that.
       The only problem I have now is the bottle stack. The parts that were removed are easily replaced with those from a square top machine, with the exception of the cam that is actuated by the vend cylinder at the bottom.
        Rod......have you had this part re-manufactured yet as it is also critical to convert an electrical stack back to manual? I could supply one from another stack as a sample if someone has access to a machine shop that would be capable of re-making these as I could use a few of them.
       Also I'm not sure if this part is the same as a 110 or reversed but if it is the same, I would buy one if anyone has an extra. Can post a picture later if necessary.
        Thanks.

I agree on this too Glen,, someone needs to find a way to make this part as i have 3 bottle stacks that are missing this part.. your reffering to the little Triangular peice with a pin in it that is engaged by the vend Cylinder I'm pretty sure..   I too had one out of a V110 and all excited and when I went ot put it in, Totally forgot it was reversed? Duh,, took me a while to realize that one..

WHo can come to the rescue on this one...  It's Part 29 and accessory peices that work with it on the diagram attached

I need a couple for sure..

not sure how big of a need, but look Glen said, it's essential if your converting an electric STack to Mechanical.

       John needs 3, I will commit to 4. I don't think a run of 24 would be unreasonable.

You can reverse them, grind off the weld on one side, punch out the pin, drive the pin back in on the other side. and for good measure a dab of JB weld and you are good to go. I have done this several times with no problems.

I may have 2-3 of these if they are needed.
