I just had to post this to brag. I am so excited I can hardly stand it. I got an email today about this C96. It is complete and works. It has been painted all white but it is really nice. The guy needed it out ASAP so I told him I would come get it right then. $200 for a round top 96 isn't too bad. I can hardly sit still I am so happy. Sorry the pics are bad but it is dark and it is still in my truck.

Another great story in a long line of Josh's acquisitions!
Whoever stated this was so right, "Josh is a machine magnet"!
Congrats! Looks to be in great shape too!

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

When I first looked I had to look again. It would seem that it is laying down in the bed of a pick-up at night. Deceptive picture isn't it.

Yes the machine is in the back of my truck. I am now on the road on my way to Cincinnati with the machine. Just wait to see what I have next.
So far in Minneapolis I have only been posting ads on Craigslist. I repost the ad every day to make sure it is at the top. You either have to change the ad every time or delete it every day before you post. On this machine the guy saw an ad a long time ago from one of my ads in cincinnati and it just happened to be that he lived within 10 miles of me in minneapolis. You think I am lucky now just wait untill the end of the week.

Okay, I'm guessing someone paid Josh to haul off a mint RC VMC-81 :-)

I wish it was a keeper but I could use the money. I am going to wait untill tomorrow to plug it in to see if it works then I am going to list it on ebay. Since it is in Cincinnati and I am driving back to Minneapolis in a week or so I am going to offer to deliver the machine along my way if anyone needs it for a small fee. Or I will forward air it. It is a really nice machine. It could use paint but there isn't even a speck of rust on it and it is complete.
