I'll contact you via email, Brian..I'm definetly getting one! think I like the three-button autoselect the most, the coindoor is the only difference between the two models, he said he can replace any broken doors, knobs, etc. goodness knows he has enough spare parts!

Ha! funny guy!  he's using his dads old service warehouse for his hobby of classic auto repair, basically the place looks like a muffler shop! it has thousands ( not kidding either) of mufflers, pipes, & exhaust/chassis components, all OEM/Walker brand for 50's & 60's classic cars, he even has a dual exhaust system with mufflers & resonators that'll fit my '59 ElCamino!, so he's ready to clear out all of the old Vendo Ice Cream machines to make more room for his cars, they are currently occuping a service bay area & old walk-in freezer that used to service & stock the vending trucks, he also showed my a couple of 70's Rock-Ola soda-machines, the kind that have the plastic windows that hold a display can of soda to show what each selection is...& a 80's Vendo/Coke and some of those glass-front "drop" type candy machines, he's literally got a pallet full of old Coinco coinmechs & boxes of MARS coinmechs too! & he's going to put together a "care" package of spare parts to go along with the Vendo Ice Cream machines he's selling to me & another SMC member & friend, after he get's his engine dropped back into a '64 Oldsmobile thats blocking the way to the Vendo's ( he's also got a sweet '63 Impalla SS/hardtop! |

You should pick-up a quarter or half pallet of the coinco / mars changers. Build some stock.

Good luck on sealing the deal. fyi, there have been a couple other vendo ice cream and milk machie on ebay lately. They looked different from the pics you posted (maybe newer models). Anyway just fyi, in case your seller has been looking through ebay to help set his price.
