Cornelius Dispenser - Tombstone
I found one of these locally and the guy wants 100 for it but it only has 1 " spigot" for lack of a better word out of the 4. So, I wanted to know how hard are they to come by, any ideas? thanks.

Not going to be an easy part to find :-( Post a picture of the one you have. Some of the members that have access to milling machines might be able to help you out.

HI Creighton thanks for the reply I didn't buy it, he wanted 100 for it but i wasn't sure if it made sense to buy it. Its those 3 freaking plastic spigots so Im not sure how someone would mill one. if it was the top chrome handles I would expect million would be easier. But it's the actual plastic part( red part).

RacerX may know of some parts....
And watch eBay, of coarse, handles pop up from time to time... Can you get a picture of it? Are they rounded or square?

LTR I will try and get a picture on Monday yea I had wondered if the black ones you see on the 70's dispensers would work. But How to get them red.....I suppose I could use vinyl dye since that works well for plastics. Oh yea And it didnt have the metal handle parts either But LT I was looking through the site and you said you had them repoed? But now I see you say that your repo guy is not working at that company anymore? Thanks Adam

Help me out here guys... Remember I don't have the history you boys have.

Did the dispenser come attached to the soda machine?? Buy it in bottle or by the glass??

Hi Dave,
As I understand it the cooler keeps the ice cold for putting in a cup and the mix came from the dispenser.

Hey LT!! Sorry to hear he did great work.

Hello, Dave & Creighton

                                 Well Creighton is a little right .But You have to see the complet system to understand how it Works .My Tombstone is mounted to a Queens Ice maker Which makes Flake Ice & automaticly dumps it in to a bin on top of a Cold block (Heavey Alumumblock) were the hose attach to it to Cool the Syrup befor it's mixed .So really you don't need the Ice in the cup But It's WAY better that way .
If your only useing the Despencer by it's self Most I'v seen Go through a Cooling system usely the Syrup is chilled .

Just came across this with literally three minutes to spare. Mnaged to get a couple of bids in but not enough to win it. What a coincidence.

By the way have a look at the ME page of the winner. Guess she wanted it more than I did.

Wow, I never knew Coke issued so much early advertising in
so many foreign languages. How did she get so many different
signs?  Her name is Tina Klaus.........maybe that's her husband
visiting houses every Dec. 25 in the middle of the night.  :D

      I checked her bid history and she is a player, Dave didn't stand
a chance against this pro    :help:

That seems like a good price, isn't it?  I talked to a guy from Austria last week and I think he said that a Euro = about $1.30 American right now.  If that is true it sold for about $91 or so US.  Would that be about right Dave?

Love those button signs!

That was £50.00 which is about $100. I saw it far too late in the day. If I'd seen it before I'd have sought advice.

There seems to be lots of stuff coming out of Germany. V-80's seem really popular. I think it must have been something to do with the carve up after the War.

I have spread my seach further afield.
