Does anyone know where I could get a Coin Bezel for my VF-56 machine.  New or used is fine..  I have contacted lots of places and no luck what so ever.  
Any information on where to look would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Gilbert - You may want to check with KevinC - I think he's bought several VMC56 (or V56) parts kits.  If he doesn't have the bezel then maybe the folks he bought parts from still have them...  

While you're looking for the bezel have you considered a free vend switch?  Jed (aka spider) posted a real slick solution here.

Hi Gil, I also have a 56. Sorry I can't help with the coin bezel but I was wondering if you know of anyone who has the decal around it like in your pic? The blue and white Vendorlator logo there that explains about the selection? I'll keep an eye out for a bezel.

Chuck - you should be able to find the decal from either SodaJerk Works or Funtronics.  SodaJerk works usually has a banner at the top of these boards and Funtronics has contact info in the supplier section.

Thanks you guys for the information...  I do have a free vend on the machine, with a push of a button I get the soda/beer.  I really want the bezel for the look.  

As for the decal Chuck, I have seen some on Ebay but these are vinyl decals.  The one on my machine is painted on.

Gilbert - check out the link to Jed's solution (eee my post above).  It'll at least fill in the hole where the bezel is.  It won't look as original but with the right backing plate it could look real close.

I took a look at that post, and the diamond plate cover looks great, but I really dont want that for my machine.  To me it just takes away from the vintage look...  So anybody that see a bezel for my machine please give me a holla!

Thanks for the compliment Bryan.  As an update I have the 96 at work now and it is making a little money for me.  

I agree with Gsaenz that original looks better, but I liked the fact that I didn't have to drill any new holes in the machine for this.
