Eric,
I'm so sorry to hear. Was just wondering about this the other day. Hang in there, it'll be yours.

Don't know about Missouri, but in our part of the world that machine would need to be chained down to last a week outside.

Believe me... If I wasn't a Born Again, Good Baptist Boy It would be “In-Doors”
via my basement. But I have to believe if it is meant to be... it will come around....
There's a lesson here... I'm just not sure what it is yet.....

Moondawg is right...that machine would be gone so fast...even then a chain might not even work.
I know an antique shop in Berkeley on a really busy street that had a six foot tall gaspump chained outside.  In broad daylight, an individual backed up a pick-up onto the sidewalk, used chain cutters to "free" the gaspump, and then casually pushed it into the back of the truck and drove off!  I couldn't believe it when I heard it...I heard this from a salvage worker who bought the machine for 100 bucks from the guy who wasn't a collector at all, but a hardcore junkie!
Anyway...I've recruited a pack of them to hunt down coke machines for me....:Wink:
