I just found another old car I would like to buy but the wife has asked me to make a choice with some of my soda machines.  I have a Jacobs 56  in great unrestored condition.  I rewired it and everything works and it vend on a dime and gets cold.  Here is a picture.  I heard they are worth almost $4000 in working unrestored original condition.  With the economy the way it has been, is this still the case?

Haha, I bet it is!  I have a machine that I want to work on, but I'm not doing a complete resto on it, just getting it up and running.  I'm almost there, just looking for a small little steel ball that goes under the verticle vending drum (VMC-149).  I like the original look when it has a nice "patina", as they put it.  About to get the V-216 up running so I can get it out of here.  Be sure to post pics when it's completed!!

Could you post a couple pictures of the machine plugged in and in the dark? I've always wanted to see the red, green, and Pepsi lights.
