I am having great trouble finding any information on this classic.  I believe it was manufactured sometime in the 40's or 50's.  As far as I know all of what is left is original.

George,

This is an interesting machine that I have no information about...
Perhaps someone well versed in older manufacturers has something to offer...
For a moment, I was thinking General Electric; but the ID Tag says General Vending Machine Corp...?  Is there a model number and serial number as well?
Would you be intersted in sharing a photo for use on this Site in our Soda Machines Listing?

Sure, I have no problem sharing some photos of the machine for the website.  I can't find a model number or serial number anywhere on the machine.  The nice thing about it is that it still works great, however just about all of the parts that make it a soda machine are missing.  Right now it is just a top loading refrigerator.

This is the closest thing I can find to a model # or serial #

Silly me...
I actually have a section in the Soda Machines Listings on General Vending Machine Corp.
The other models listed are upright models whereas yours is a horizontal cooler.
Is this model coin-operated?

I'll contact you about getting a couple of photos...
