Title: Looking for a basic machine somewhere between DC and Charlotte, NC Post by: tkaz on December 21, 2010, 05:57:59 pm I got a request from a family member down in Charlotte that they want a soda machine for their new fiancee. Preferably, I'm looking for something along the lines of a Vendo 63, Cavalier USS or CSS or CS 64. I'll consider whatever you might have though. I'd like something in working shape, I probably won't be able to do much of a restoration on it. Price is up in the air, but $200-$300 is about the range I am looking for.
Not a lot of machines out there now, I've been scrubbing craigslist and ebay for a couple weeks now, but haven't found much. I sure do miss Craiglook. I'm right outside of DC, and willing to travel some to get it. Thanks!

I am too far west to help, but good luck....machines are out there.

I've got a USS-64 with a bad compressor, but I have a new one in the box, just never got around to installing.. I could also get together a V63, cans or bottles, but its missing the sign panel. We are about 3 hrs north of Baltimore..

I'd like to pick up a USS machine for my buddy up in CT for his birthday (at his war department's request)...anybody have one (bubba??) and/or know of a decent machine they've come across in some searches along the 95 corridor?

That line scares me a little bit, worth an email at least.
