This is the way the machine looked when I bought it and how it looks now. It's an Ideal 110. I have been looking for a decent Vendo (still am) and found this one to "practice" on. Thanks to everyone that helped answer some questions on this machine.

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. |

Nice work. And after the first one, finding another machine just seems to become easier.  |

Great restore! The hand with a bottle looks nice on the taller machines.

It took about 16 hours to complete over 3 weeks. Luckly, I had access to the needed tools and equipment.

Excellent job ! ! ! Two questions: Can I use the photo for inclusion in our Soda Machines Section...? And secondly, can you provide accurate dimension measurements for this model...? Thanks! |

Keep up the good work but slow down you are making us ole slow guys look bad. 16 hours WOW..
