Title: VMC 33 Post by: 32Ford on November 10, 2009, 05:28:49 pm Hello, Looking for opinions on the value of a VMC 33, Very nice original condition, always stored indoors, everything is working. A very presentable machine the way it is.
Thanks Title: Re: VMC 33 Post by: Jim on November 10, 2009, 06:42:14 pm Any photos that you can post...?

What are they asking? Asking price is $800.00. I do not know how to post pictures, sorry. Can you help me with something? I think I have seen Coke VMC33's that have a 2 piece aluminum front door on the main door while others have just the main sheet metal door that is painted red. The one I am looking at does not have the aluminum doors. Thanks Title: Re: VMC 33 Post by: collecture on November 10, 2009, 10:55:47 pm There were two 33's
First one produced shortly after the Dual 27 had split doors Second one produced had the solid single door (aka 33-3D) - Coke model was not embossed and there were Pepsi and 7UP embossed versions. 33-3D is considered more desirable, but $800 seems high (to me) for the Coke version.

I paid $800.00 for a really nice, working and very presentable Pepsi Vendolater 27B. And I have no intentions of selling it anytime soon. Which is probably a good thing because I am not sure I could get that much out of it. So you got ask yourself, "do you really need a VMC 33." Title: Re: VMC 33 Post by: FRESNO MAN on November 11, 2009, 08:34:18 pm I would think that in today’s market, one should be able to get a decent 3D-33 Coke between 350- 600.
Sort of related, but my 3D-33 is at the body shop now and I'm doing it as a fantasy (Fanta?) Orange Crush. Found a local upholstery guy who likes Orange Crush and will trade for a job on my Aussie right-hand drive Falcon (Mad Max base care). This machine should look very cool. Will be posting pics.

I do not really need the machine, it's one of those things, "I want the VMC- 33 for my shop to go along with my gas pumps, signs, etc". I just like "stuff" from the 50"s in my shop. Your observation is exactly where I am. Regards Title: Re: VMC 33 Post by: Crazzy Canuck on November 13, 2009, 11:46:06 am I'll try posting pic for him
Title: Re: VMC 33 Post by: Crazzy Canuck on November 13, 2009, 11:53:35 am Hey I got it!!! Thanks for posting the picture re-size thread.
P.S. If you want to sell this, let me know. Title: Re: VMC 33 Post by: VMC 81 on November 13, 2009, 11:41:17 pm Nice looking machine. If you really want this 33 then go in with cash at $650-700.
