I don't think there ever was one. As far as I know there was only the USS 64,96,144,10, and 180. Do you have a pic of one?

Good looking machine.  I would guess it is just a little thinner than the USS 64.  '<img'>

looks to me like a regular USS-64. Nice machine. It was origionally Coke. As I know Cavalier at this time still wasn't producing pepsi machines.

Thought Cavalier made machines only for Coke. I may be wrong!'<img'>

You are correct. But as we all know sometimes other companies came to own other brands machines one way or another. There also is a Pepsi CSS-64 on ebay right now. As far as I know later in the 80's and 90's I think Cavalier did make machines for other brands before they closed their doors.

So up until the 80's (or so) Cavalier and Vendo only made Coke machines.  Any other manufacturers make their machines only for a single brand? '<img'>

I got this home and the model # does say 8-48.  Vendingmachinerus.com has a USS 8-48 manual listed under their parts section.

Westinghouse made only Coke machines as far as I know.

Nice machine. As far as I can see it is the same as a 64.

How many cans will it hold per shelf?  '<img'> The 64 will hold 7.

That's a really sweet machine - great find!  One thing I wonder.. I recall the USS8-64 held 64 bottles, or a smaller number of cans? - Could that be this machine was made later after it was intended primarily as a can machine?  Either way, it's a great machine, and a terrific addition to your garage!

Yep, 8 cans per shelf. Do you think it was originally Coke? I guess it could have been made over, but I haven't found any red yet.

It has 8 shelves and holds 8 cans per shelf...I thought 8x8 = 64.  Where did they get 48 from? '<img'>
