Title: What Was Your Favorite Find Of 2015 Post by: HowDueYouDue on December 31, 2015, 11:36:21 am As 2015 is coming to a close, wanted to take a minute and see what everyone's favorite find(s) were in 2015 and what you all may be hunting for in 2016.
I would say this was my favorite find this year. Mainly because I went to mow the lawn, it broke in my hand trying to start it, so I went flea marketing. http://soda-machines.com/discussions/index.php/topic,20385.0.html Title: Re: What Was Your Favorite Find Of 2015 Post by: mygoose101 on December 31, 2015, 05:18:35 pm Both good questions. Looking ahead to 2016 I'm hoping to land either a Cavalier 27 or 33. Can be either a 8+ original or reasonably priced restored. Also a Pepsi 33 would also be nice.

Title: Re: What Was Your Favorite Find Of 2015 Post by: coke_and_stuff on December 31, 2015, 09:09:42 pm 2015 was a amazing year for me on finding some very rare machines. Hard to choose just one. Some I put back for myself, Others I was able to put into some awesome collections. I put over 55k miles on my truck, attended a dozen or so shows or swap meets. I was able to view some amazing collections, and meet some great people along the way.
