I'm sure that some of you guys here in FLA talked to this guy since he said that he talked to a couple of people already but after talking to him I got it for $250.00. He says it cools but not freezing cold but it works. He kept liquor in it.  I know that parts are very scarce but I'm doing this machine for my kid so it can take me as long as it takes to find the right parts.  If anyone knows where I can find the drum, coin mech, coin mech door and handle please let me know.

Exactly which model is it?  Data tag is very difficult to read.  Thanks.

Cool.  Thanks for the info.  I'll be heading up next week to see a guy that may know where I can find the parts you need, or may even have some parts.  If I can locate them, I'll drop you a note and let you know.

Looks like a solid machine!
Far and few in-between on Jacobs parts. Keep a watchful eye out and you will locate them in time.

Nice find,  half the fun of collecting is the hunt for the missing parts!

Absolutly! It is usable as a fridge in the mean time. For me the trill is the hunt. Thats probably why I have sold every machine I have bought  biggrin It would be fun to gather the parts. Go to swap meats and dig through parts bins and so on. Have fun and enjoy it. It will be more rewarding once its done and you and your son are enjoying it down the road!
