Guys,

What is this Coca Cola machine? The seller is saying it is a Vendo44 but it doesnt resemble one to me.  But I might be mistaken.

Thank You

Not a 44, looks like a Cavalier, but can't identifiy  the model. Comapre it to  the garage door, it's a beast,   6' tall or so where the 44 is 5' and some inches .
the 44 is crank vend, also missing.

If Rick Dale is the one selling it to you, then it is a Vendo 44  biggrin

It looks like some kind of Vendo 216, but I see in the pic that you have an ID tag on the side.... just look at the first line and it should say the model No.

@ Johnie

You're right prime specimen for a 81 my guess would be an Orange Crush, though drinking

       He certainly has. Here is a photo-clip of his first show provided by a member here,  someone told me it re-ran again last night.

If the seller says he has a broker house handling the sale because he's out of the country, it's prolly fake. Or nonexistent. Most likely both.

If Coca Cola is spelled with a K, it's fake.

I don't think the seller was  trying to pull one over in the first pics, I think 44 was all he could make out on the tag.
