Title: Westinghouse selectomatic
Post by: loman4ec on June 18, 2004, 08:18:46 am
I am looking to buy a Westinghouse selectomatic machine. I have owned slant shelf machines in the past but I really like the Westinghouse Machines. Can anyont tell me an average of what these machines are worth restored? I know that they are only worth what someone wants to pay, But I haven't paid much attention to these machines in the past, so I havent seen what they are going for. I am looking for either a WC-60-MD or WD-78-MD. Are there any difference in value in these two machines? I have also heard that they can be made to vend cans. Is this true? And how much does the conversion cost? Thanks for all of your help. Josh

loman4ec, there's a 78 on ebay at the moment.  Pictures aren't the greatest but worth a check.

Wouldn't you rather have an original than a restored version?

Anyway, this is the one on ebay:

No, it's not mine.  I did just buy one, though.

I've posted some info on the Select-a-matic 12oz. can adapters in the post 60's section, slide over and have a look-see. as well, they are spacers that insert into the stock OEM rack depth adjusters, ( that adjust the vending stack/column depth for 8-12oz. glass bottles normally) to accept 12oz. cans.

they are basically  1/2" wide & 3" deep, that attach into the crown guide channel of the spacers, & extend a little past the bottom of the spacers to space the 12oz. cans forward in  the stack/column
