Title: Vendo 81 Large Door Coin Mech For Sale Post by: loman4ec on May 08, 2010, 10:38:57 am Well I am working really hard on my coin mech reproduction project and need to buy tools. I have collected several other coin mechs getting ideas on how to best make this repop mech. I am really close to making a small door large door conversion.
Because of this I have decided to sell this large door change giving mech out of one of my 81's. this will give me extra money to buy the tools I need to make the mech's and get me motivated to make the replacement mechs since I now have a machine missing a mech. This mech for sale is a fantastic original. It is set for 10 cents and works great and gives change for a quarter. The ebay link is http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110529859494&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT#ht_500wt_1182 Or item #110529859494 This mech did come out of an 81 so no shaft modifications need to be made to make it work in an 81,110,56, 44 (except VMC44). I apologize for putting this on ebay first but I need the money to buy a metal break, mig welder, and air compressor. I am hoping with parting out this C51 and this coin mech I will get the money needed to at least cover half of the tools. I should have a prototype mech in two to three weeks!!

I hope that you have done your homework on this. Is there a definate market??

That is what I have kept in mind the whole time. If they sell that is great and if not no big deal. All of the tools I am buying for this project I need for restoring machines anyway. Thanks for the thought Dave. I have prepared myself for that. I can't even count the number of machines that I have passed up because they are missing mechs so it is worth it to me to have a replacement.
