if you open the door of a 39 with the original drum, you will grab the bottle by the cap end.
The drums that accomodate 12 ozs bottles were/are loaded with cap end ytoward the back of the machine, and you grab the bottle by it's bum.

Sodaman- Good information on the wants of the customer. Plus, it will save time and money not pin stripping the machine.
Sodaworks- What is ment by service colors?

I think he meant "reverse" colors.

Thanks for all of the input. I am going to start disassembling a V39 tomorrow. I will decide on the colors later, but I am definately basing my decision off the input from all of you on this forum. I will keep you posted. Thanks again

I like the idea of the red and white cabinet with a white door. It will look like a cavalier. It will be what you want plus if you do ever decide to sell it it will be easy to repaint the bottom of the door. Good idea Glen.

I would have to check to make sure, but I have both the later drum that holds king size bottles and the new drum and if I recall correctly, the original has holes in the back that takes in the crown only, and the small bottles are still inserted bottom first.

Do what you want but white does not have a good resale future. I had a V39 that had been redone by the 7UP people, mashed in the coke embossing and painted it white with green trim and the person that done it did a high quality job but I had a terrible time trying to move it, I finally took everything off, drum, mech, etc. and sold the shell with coin door for $275.

Great replies. I was worried about resale later. I have two V39s that I plan on restoring.
So, how much time and $$$ do you plan on investing in these restorations and how much $$$ do you plan on selling them for? All these figures may dissapoint you.  You could build one and use it for yourself while you try and sell it. Then you will learn what people like and dislike about it and apply that feedback into your next machine. |
