Title: ID and value?

Heading to look at this tomorrow. He says the motor stopped working a few weeks ago, but he's only asking $100 so I tihnk the price is right to bring it home. Any insight would be appreciated. Cheers!

That has the look of a Cornelius but it doesn't exactly match anything in the Soda Machine library.  In any event, I would say the $100 price might be worth it if everything else is there.  Of course, if he is asking $100, I would offer $50 and negotiate from there.  Depending on the cooling system, it might not be an easy fix.

Plus, that is not a machine that you will want to put a lot of money into because in working condition it might only be worth $200 to $300 tops.

My 2 cents anyway.

Looks like a Canadian Ideal 150 from the mid 1960's. 

I'd value it no more than $100-150, depending on how good it looks and runs.

That would have my second guess Bob!
