It is large, orange, and likely in it's final resting place as it appears to be in an old basement somewhere that probably has a nice long narrow flight of steps.

Looks like Jared won. I say as a prize, we all chip in and buy it for him. Probably a $1 each should do it. You have to pick up Jared.

Some guy out of Maine contacted me about three machines he found in a warehouse and wanted to know if they where worth anything before he scraped them..
the other two are push button type of square top coke machines from the 70's .. told him to scrap them.
then he said he and an orange crush machine.. well, apparently it's only Orange, no crush.. I advised it is still not worth much to the collector, and would be hard to sell.. but figured I'd throw it out here if anyone is interested..
I have his email saved if anyone wants it.. I won't post it publicly per his request.

A lot of the guts (switches, buttons, lamps, motors, the old style metal augers, coinmech & selection relays) will fit the smaller ( more desirable) single & dual selection models in this lineup from Choice Vend. But you still got to move it!

He wasn't that far off, it is an Orange Crush machine. When it falls on you it will CRUSH you.

That's also the choice vend I posted about with the parts question. It's a beast and 2 flights of stairs with a turn. She is going to destroy it before it goes for scrap so nobody profits from it. I told her she is wasting get time... It already is! (Nice enough lady, she's just been ripped off for a truckload of copper and brass by the first people)
I'm supposed to go back for a Curtis belt driven air compressor this weekend. I told her I would give a couple of bucks if I could strip it right there of I go back. I didn't have any tools and already filled the trailer with better stuff. Carting it all up the stairs I guess I lost motivation also!

What is it about the Choice Vends that make them so heavy? The design of the vend stack? I had a 224 from the 1970's, that sucker weighed over 500 lbs! The heaviest ones compete with compact cars for weight.
