Agreed, V-110 w/ small door.
It appears to have been repainted as some time...
Do you know if it vends properly and cools...?
Does the seller have an asking price?

The second machine is a cup machine. If you are looking for a machine to use I would not suggest this machine. The first machine the Vendo 110 is a very nice machine and really is not very big. It is just slightly larger than the V81's. Its just a little wide. They are great machines.

800 for the 110 isn't bad, if it works.  I agree the outside has been painted, so it may have been retored.
And doesn't the 110 have adjustable shelves?

I believe the shelves were adjustable. I used to buy them up in Chicago all day as the 81's were drying up and getting pricey then. I was buying them for $400 8 or 10 yrs ago

When I said "too big" I should have said "too wide".

Whatever machine I get needs to be less than 29" wide.

I really like my dual 27a but it doesn't take the 12oz bottles so its not beer friendly...

I tried Coronitas in it but they are just slightly too long and get jammed in the machine after turning the lever.

        You can vend beer in the 27, just remove the back plate and it vends a single row just fine. You will have to remove the bottle neck support from the plate and attatch it to the rear wall for it to handle the second row.

Glen,

Someone told me before that you can modify the rack in a 27 to make it vend cans. Is that true? I am looking at 3d33 and it would be great if it vended cans. I just looked and it says in Jeff Waltes book that "With slight modification it will vend cans". Does anyone know what you have to do to modify it?

No way!  Thats awesome!  How hard is it to do this mod?  Im a little hesitant to take it apart since its in such good original condition.  Will it then take the 12 oz coke bottles?  Or just certain sized beer bottles? 

Thanks for the info!

taking the back plate off isn't hard. you have to take the drum out but its not a big deal. Once it is out most bottles will fit.

       I don't know what Jeff was talking about, cans are just too fat.
