Title: Just acquired vendo 63 - a question??? Post by: jenkine on February 26, 2010, 09:25:34 pm My vendo 63 coke machine has a lighted flourescent front panel but it does not seem to have a lighted door panel where the cokes come out. Is this normal? The machine looks to be from the early 60s.....Thanks.

Post by: cdc1960 on February 26, 2010, 09:48:58 pm when you open the small door on the front, you should be able to see a small recess where the bulb is at the top... alternately, open the main door, and there should be a small twist fixture above the small door opening, that would hold the bulb...

Title: Re: Just acquired vendo 63 - a question??? Post by: Pat Pixley on February 27, 2010, 12:36:29 am I do think it was a option or what ever was called for on the line as they were being built at the time.
I had two Cavalier 64s they were a mirror match except one had a bottle door light and the other did not. Title: Re: Just acquired vendo 63 - a question??? Post by: Yarochrehc on February 27, 2010, 11:55:35 am The lighted sign was an option according to the manual I have.
