I'd do it. It looks nice. I paid $125 for a Atlas Master on a stand a couple of weeks ago. I think it's worth it.

It is missing the chrome tray that attaches to the bottom. Chrome is dull but may can be polished out. These typically go for over $150 with the tray on ebay.

That's and Atlas Bantam without the tray.  Price seems a bit high but it is a neat machine.

Excuse my ignorance, but what's the hole to the upper left of the crank for?

That is where you insert you nickel. :oops: Not sure why they put a hole all the way through there--maybe had something to do with how the casting was set up.  I picked one of these up last year.  Probably paid too much but I bought it to keep.  Neat little machines for vending nuts or candy.  The only thing funny about mine is that the door on the vend chute does not open very wide and I am told that is how they were made.  Somebody out there is making a repop that looks just like the original but vends for a quarter.

Here is a cool double Bantam set up on E-Bay right now.  Looks like it is going to go pretty high--out of my range anyway.
