Hello
We got a little break in the hot weather & I finished with the VMC56. I bought this machine from Jasmine64. I just installed the normal 2 new fan motors, new T-stat & new wiring harness. Plus I cleaned the two coils.
I decided for now to keep this machine as a bottle machine & I loaded it with 12oz gatorades for my son.
This series of pictures show the intallation of a new light fixture.

Hello
The shows the new fixture installed. I just drilled the light in place with two self tapping screws & I left the plastic light cover off.

Hello
This shows the cover in place & you can just see the switch I installed hanging down in the coin compartment. I cutout & disabled the switch that is on the light fixture. This way I can turn the light on/off from the coin compartment.
The light is an under the counter light I bought at Lowe's & the switch is a simple push button type.

Man oh man, Kev!!!! That's sweet! Great job on the light install. Did you get the sign insert from Funtronics?
You've got quite the collection going!

Hello
The machine came set up for a light & I think the insert did come from Funtonics but Jasmine64 will have to answer that question. The old light fixture was just gone.
Now when I get to work on the V56 (gray machine) I am converting it from a no frills thrifi-vend machine to a machine with light & glass bottle door. That one will take some work to get the holes drilled & the sign set in place. That is another project for the winter.

Yes the insert came from Funtronics.
I not sure if the machine ever had a light fixture. The socket clamp looked like had very little use. |

Kevin - very nice job.... Was it originally a Coke or Pepsi machine? Did you paint it yourself?
Nice touch to reward the recovery team with a machine for their drinks...
