Hello Jordang, Welcome to the board!! Please post a picture or two. A read through of the "Pre-Sixties" section will help as well. Creighton

Great condition. Good deal too. I have a Vendolator 110 in Pepsi which is the same machine. Also have a vendo 154 which is it's big brother in the exact same stylestar model. Any questions just give me a holler.

It's all galvanized so rust shouldn't be an issue. I use simply green cleaner or clr if the build up is really, really bad. Usually The simply green and green scrubby pad from 3M is fine.

There are gems buried everywhere not just on cleaning but on all aspects of restoration.

Value's a tough one. The price on the square machines is going up all the time but really is all over the place depending on where you live. Another issue is the size, while I personally like the bigger machines most people like the smaller ones like the 56 and 63. I would say a complete good condition machine like that is worth around 300-500 in my neck of the woods(Michigan).

Jordan - I'd have to agree with GBR on the value. You might get a little extra because of the syle star sign.

If you have to paint use Hammertone Silver..... tough stuff! Check out topic under refinishing... Krylon Vs Hammertone.... I may have to paint my machine inside too and I'm sold on the Hammertone. I've used this paint in restoring some candy machines.... very durable.
