Hi guys,
Could you please help me ID this machine (supposedly from 1957)? I looked in the photos in the Soda Machines section of this website, but didn't see a match.

Once ID'd, any additional info would be greatly appreciated.
Also, do any of you guys own one just like this one?
Thanks so much!

Hello,

What you have is a version of the Vendo 216; off the top of my head, a V-216 MD.
There's general information located in the Vendo Section of the Soda Machines Listing.

My six cents,

Thanks, I just bought it on eBay. My first soda machine ever!
It is missing the coin mechanical parts. Anyone know where I can get the replacement for that?
Thanks guys.

Jim,
You must be right about it being a V-216 MD, because though I didn't see it in the Vendo gallery here (just other 216's that don't look anything like it), I did a Google search and saw the V-216 MD here and it looks identical:

Some of those big old machines look real nice, as long as you don't have to move them, especially up or down stairs!

when I go pick it up at the guy's garage, I assume I can lay the machine on it's back in the truck? What is recommended, as I've never moved a coke machine before.
Any and all advice is needed and requested.
Thanks,
