Hello All! New to the discussion room and have two questions. Have you ever heard of a square top vendo 63 7up machine? Also, what is a Pepsi Heintz Gullwing worth? I do not collect Pepsi or Coke, but someone I know wants to sell it and it is a good deal. It is in good shape, needs some paint is all.

Thanks,

Seven181

The 7 up Vendo 63 was once a coke machine. It is common for other companies to aquire other companies machines and paint them to fit their company. I have owned two pepsi V63's that were origionally Coke. As for the gullwing there is one on Ebay right now. Watch that auction and see what it goes for.

Hello! Thanks. The 7up machine I have it embossed. I thought it said vendo 63, but maybe I am wrong. Looking at your pictures on the pictures site here, it is the same one you have! Looks like you restored yours? Thanks for the heads up on the Gullwing, I will watch Ebay.

Brian. The machine that I restored was a Selectivend ss63. I contacted Selectivend and spoke to an old vending machine repair man that is still there. He started in the mid 50's so he remembers these machines. He didn't remember this machine and we even went through the records and Selectivend has no record of ever making an embossed square top. Since I built mine I have heard of two others with yours being one of them. This is a rather tricky machine to restore. Just the front door breaks down into 10 or 15 pieces and becomes really flemsey. I have a ton of pics of before during and after if you need anything. My email is jdloman2000@yahoo.com. i would give you a phone number but I am now living and working in Thailand. But please if you need any help with the machine just let me know.

Josh,

Thanks so much for the support! I have seen some of your pictures of your restore. I would love to see more! You can send them to Seven181@aol.com. It is a rare machine, as I have talked to a few people and they have never heard or seen one like it. It truly is nice, because of the embossing on it. Did you restore yours all yourself? I would like to, but really do not know muchy about restoring. I am just getting started and not going to start on anything like this!

Hello Brian,
Welcome aboard. If the price is right I would love to get my hands on a Pepsi Gullwing cooler.
