Title: MULTI VENDO 39 B ??????? Post by: BONOVOX on July 21, 2011, 03:31:11 pm I'm not new to all of this, but I guess anything is possible....
Is this a legit machine? I was not aware that vendo brought back the 39's to refit, and called them 39B's http://cgi.ebay.com/Rare-Original-1950s-Vendo-39-B-Multi-Vend-Coke-Machine-/170670911855?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27bcc7716f Title: Re: MULTI VENDO 39 B ??????? Post by: tkaz on July 21, 2011, 03:36:49 pm Yep, it's real. That's the one V-39 that'd I'd really like to have, multi-drink would be great with the classic look of the 39

what a great way to have a classic 39 , but with multi selection and 12 oz bottle drum as well! Title: Re: MULTI VENDO 39 B ??????? Post by: Kilroy on July 22, 2011, 09:56:45 am Sorry, i liken it to dropping a 4 cylinder into a 67 mustang to get better gas milage.

So I assume this was NOT done by the Vendo company, but rather an aftermarket back in the day? What do the ID tags on these machines say? 39B? Thanks to all thus far for all this info... it's only 5:00pm on a friday, and I already learned something :smile: Title: Re: MULTI VENDO 39 B ??????? Post by: Kilroy on July 22, 2011, 09:02:59 pm i don't believe Vendo did the refits, much like Seeburg didn't do the refits on the 50's jukeboxes.
For operators, it allowed a machine to be kept in service longer, so less income had to go to newer machines. The v39 was my first machine, so I'm slightly, heck i am very biased about them. :) Title: Re: MULTI VENDO 39 B ???????

Is it true that a conversion kit was sold for Vendo 39s that turned them into multi-vend shelf machines with a door on the right? Title: Re: MULTI VENDO 39 B ??????? Post by: Jim on July 23, 2011, 04:23:49 am Matt,
It's a Selectivend C-39 (http://soda-machines.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=201&Itemid=14) Title: Re: MULTI VENDO 39 B ??????? Post by: davethebirdman on July 23, 2011, 07:24:09 am I don't think that is a v39B unless the "ice cold is a decal." Title: Re: MULTI VENDO 39 B ??????? Post by: loman4ec on July 23, 2011, 02:18:50 pm I thought it was a selectivend. They made all of the other glass door conversions for many other machines including the V39, V83, V144 and 144SA and the single drink selectivend machines. This allowed the machines to be used later in life when the jumbo bottles were popular and allowed them to vend multiple flavors. This 39 conversion is really cool!
