I'm addicted to coke machines! Haha I do have a problem. My first purchase was a vendo -110 and restored it. Then a Glaxo gbv-50 restored it. Then in bought a wb-78 for 80 bucks. I decided to copy collecture and make a dr pepper version. Then I saw a wb-128 for 100. Both didn't cool but vend motors both worked and one coin mech worked. Today I bought a wb-68 for 60 bucks. It cools and coin acceptor works then vend motor was shot. Through one in and everything is good to go.
I want to do something different then coke and just did the dr pepper version. Any ideas what to turn the lil guy into.



The wb-128 I'll probably gut since no one likes that model and turn it into a paint cabinet but since no one likes it.

I want one of those 68's; cool little machine.

My buddy makes fun of me all the time; he says I have a bad Coke habit!

Today I bought a wb-68 for 60 bucks.

They are WB-60's - just wanted to set the record straight.
And yes, they are great little machines! I love mine! The one in my garage is my daily driver and has been running non-stop for a couple of years now vending both cans and bottles!

Those are some nice straight machines you've found. Round here they are beat to hell and back. Congrats!
The only problem seems to be where to hide new toys :-)

So quick question:
Out of all three which one is the most Wanted and most valuable. Thoughts of current market and in the future.
I ask because the 128 I've never seen and that's the one I'm thinking of gutting and turning into a paint cabinet

Smaller is better (WB-60), but none of them will ever be overly valuable!
