Same seller for the Daytona listings and nice originals too, but not THAT nice!

I just discovered that we are all restoring the wrong machines!!! oops

Just take a look at this!  I figure I will pick it up for about $1,800--clean it up and flip it for $2,500!  Afterall, the seller must know what he is talking about, right?

Everyone have a great weekend!  biggrin Cool laugh

Nice, But quite as Rare as the ever elusive Vendo V56 in Avocado green & the ultra rare Harvest gold models!!!! the embodiment of 1970's chic.  biggrin

(Maybe they have it confused with a "woody" station wagon?)

Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon!
The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p

"Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan.

there is also a positive thing that comes out of those listings.. when selling an unrestored  machine and people are balking at "realistic" prices.. show them some of those listings and say .. "See your getting a great deal"! biggrin
