I just picked this massive thing up today. Mills 47N. It amazes me what I can do by myself when I'm determined to take something home. Not sure how I loaded and unloaded this thing. Guy selling it had a bad back so not much help. Even with lack of man power I got it back safe.  |

I like the prewar Mills with the green and red paint scheme. I hope you restore it and we look forward to the pictures.

Thanks guys. Bcharlton, It was originally the red and green. I can see it through some of the red paint. When I get around to restoring it I will make it red and green again. Cokeandstuff I'll let you know If I sell it but I think its a keeper. Brian, LOL. I'm not even sure it will fit down stairs. It's in the garage for now. Not looking forward to the day I try to fit that down there.  |

My technique was all leverage and gravity and a low trailer. I drove there with no help and the idea I would pay some locals to help me load it but to my surprise I didn't need to. I was amazed I was able to even move it.

I had a chance to buy a 47B once. A widow was selling it. She wanted $500 for it. The compressor lines were cut where it entered the cabinet and it had been removed and tossed. It was locked and she wouldn't let me drill out the lock to see if it was complete inside. It did have nice original paint. I've often thought I should have grabbed it for a display piece, but oh well!
I didn't come away empty handed. I bought a Breyer's Ice Cream light-up sign from her for $50.

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

That old Choice Vend of mine tipped the scale at 527 lbs-minus the relay box, coin mech, and a few odd pieces. Weight wise it would give the 47B a real run for its money.

Dang is right with the seller wanting 7-9K for the machine.  I hope he plans on restoring it for that. Lol |

I bet the seller will try to ask 5 or 6k for the unwanted V-83. I sent 3 emails on 47B to seller and have not heard back yet.

Hope you get some help on the locks. Would be a shame to drill if not needed. Regret I don't have any keys that would help.
