Hello
It's what's know as a Transitional machine . It's from the late 50s when the suppliers were converting from round corner machines to the Squire corner machines in the early 60s to present . They made many models like it .
They use similar parts as the round corner machines Bottle stack & Shelves & coin mech and the coin door and a few other common parts .
But do not get them confused !!! The Transitional machine do NOT have the value the old Round corner machine have .
This version is a Vendorlator 56. (Not embossed lettering ) Fully restored Value maybe $2000
That's more then the cost to restore it ($4000 + )
A round corner version is the Vendo 56 (Lettering Embossed) restored value $ 5000 +
But I aways say if you like it It doesn't matter
As I own a similar version in Faygo pop I got from a member here

that's too much unless you love it...otherwise $1200-$1500 is closer. It has about $1200 worth of parts on it.

although it looks repainted, that might be all that it has done to it? you would have to determine if it was full restored, inside and out, and then, only then might he even get more money out of it..
but based on what I'm seeing, the paint looks too orangy and the decals are wrong font, so I would be looking to buy this as an unrestored machine and again in that 1200-1500 tops.
GOod luck!
