I am totally new to this so please forgive me, but I need help in identifying this machine I picked up last weekend. I believe it is a vendo v90, but not totally sure. I picked it up for 100 bucks, and was able to fix the coin mech. with help from posts in this forum biggrin Also I would like to convert to bottle machine, but can not find a bottle rack anywhere, or if anyone has can shelves I can buy that word work too! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, red. And as far as using bottles goes, I did try, the bottle is too long, unless I was doing something wrong.  Is your machine a 90 halehouse?  and is there a template for the white area at the top of the machine?

I don't think so...
On my V-63 with a can stack, there is not enough room between the selector/pull plate and the can pusher at the back. It is either all cans or all bottles on the Vendo's. The Cav USS series machines can do both!

Nope they can not...they are only a deep as a 12-oz. can

If you are converting the machine back to bottles, you'll need the bottle rack, shelves AND the rack mounting posts located behind the rack one at the top & one at the bottom ( they are different heights inso far as can/vs/bottle rack.  see the topic Converting to Cans, this is a V63 but the same principle in reverse..    the topic is "pinned"  to the top of  of the discussion board.

Johnie, thanks for the information, I am still trying to figure out which direction I am going to go in.  I like the idea of cans as they are easier to get, but I can not find can shelves anywhere, which is why I had thought about changing over to bottles.  Or are the shelves the same for both cans and bottles?
