I picked this machine up about two months ago off ebay. The seller was nice enough to deliver the machine for free in the Springfield, MO area, from Kansas City. It ended up saving me about 10 hrs worth of drive time. Its been awhile since ive had a 56, these things are great! Great size and they look great!

Hi Joey

Nice machine. I hope I didn't nick off you all the bits you now need for this machine of yours.
I've no doubt you'll have it up and running in next to no time.

Just looking through some pictures and thought I would share.  Number one wasnt that bad just didnt look good



Number two was a basket case it ended up getting a whole new bottom welded on.





And finally number three one I can be proud of. I stuck in the shelves, took out the bottle stack and there was about a dozen little pebbles stuck in the rocker arms?? stuck on the coin door, and plugged her in everything seems to be working but a fan motor. If i get it cooling im going to use it as is for a while. Once all the parts come in.

It's in Missouri, I think it might be a sleeper because of the way it's listed "1956 CokeCola pop machine" No reserve auction and three days left. sitting at 420 bucks.

I'd love to have one of those myself.
Does Randy restore them?

I emailed the auction to Randy yesterday, no word yet he will probably snatch it up. He has so much going on right now around 15-25 machines to restore plus all the other odds and ends. Thats one of his biggest things is restoring machines.

I don't know how is paint work is (I will know soon) but his cooling and detail work is the best I have seen. His down time on a complete restoration is at least 8 months.

His paint work is very nice, I was there last Saturday he had 2 81s, a 72, and 3 or 4 sliders all knocked out and getting a 39 ready for paint. I picked up a 81 cooling unit from him and it looks great. Very Very nice work im gonna work out a deal with him for 4 or 5 units in the next month or so.
