 I had a Jacobs 56 Pepsi machine that I sold in 1993 to a gentlemen (Ted Stump) in Phoenix, AZ. Ted has since moved to North Carolina. Ted sold the machine but didn't say when or where. Unfortunately, I didn't take a picture of the serial number. This seems to be a tight community on these machines and am hoping someone reads this and can help connect the dots for me. I'm looking to replace the Jacobs 56 ....but how cool would it be to get the same machine back. Thanks, Zerbie |

How will you know when you find it? Distinguishing marks? Dents? Color? Do yo have a photo you can post? I can think of several machines some for sale, some not. Are any of them them your former machine? How would we know?

Here's a picture of what it looked like when I sold it. Other than tracking who Ted stump might have sold it to, I'm not sure the tracking/tracing can go on.
The second picture of the red colored wire terminations and the copper coil condensation tube were characteristics of the machine I had. This machine was sold by Ron Susser Auctions and pics are on there web site.

I remember a restored 56 going through my shop as a middle man in 1998. It sold for $6500.00 at that time.
Isn't that about what they're worth restored now?

Lets See Average cost of Jacobs 56 Complete $3500-$4000 +++
Average Restoration cost 2016 $4500-$6000 ++
Totaling $8000- $10,000 +++Not counting Shipping in most cases .

I am in Indiana. Someone from Danville, Ill brought it and left it here. Then Terry Bolton came through after the Chicago Show and took it south with him. Not known what happened after that. |
