Title: Cavalier C-96 Post by: RC kid on June 03, 2011, 07:49:08 pm I picked this up today. A friend called me with a lead. I didn't expect much but when I arrived I found this machine for sale. Everything works. There is rust in the bottle door but everything else is solid.
What do you guys think it's worth? I spent $375.00 on it. Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: RC kid on June 03, 2011, 07:51:40 pm Here's a photo of the inside.

Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: RC kid on June 03, 2011, 09:31:44 pm Anyone have a bottle door for this machine?
Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: rayg on June 04, 2011, 12:15:22 am Nice machine at a good price! The site for the link below "antiquevending.com" has some good info and pics of a restored one that they want $4499.99.
http://gallery.antiquevending.com/cav96big.htm Fun-Tronics sells allot parts for this machine including the bootle door gasket and springs. The Bootle door does looks rusty, but is it rusted out? http://www.fun-tronicsllc.com/index.php?crn=306 Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: RC kid on June 04, 2011, 06:28:21 am The bottle door is rusted out at the bottom.
Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: oscar on June 04, 2011, 07:49:50 am I think you got a great deal. These and the 110's are not appreciated as much and are under valued as far as I'm concerned. I believe the 110's are better looking machines than the 81's but are just to heavy.
Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: RC kid on June 04, 2011, 08:13:20 am Oscar,
You're right about the 110's not getting the attention they deserve. I have a couple of 110's. They are always more affordable and they stand out in the large garage much better than the small machines. Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: oscar on June 04, 2011, 08:53:59 am You can pick up a six case vertical for around $300 and it weighs less than a v81. It doesn't have the mechanics but is a cheap way to get a multi vend machine. It would be a lot less to restore than a machine with the vending mech. Something to keep in mind if you have someone looking for a machine and they don't have much to spend.
Title: Re: Cavalier C-96 Post by: Eric on June 04, 2011, 11:33:37 am I bet someone here will have a door to sell... Nice score!
