Title: VMC Dual 27 Parts Needed
Post by: Picklef16 on April 12, 2012, 01:19:01 pm
Hi All...new to the forum and have already found a lot of helpful posts.  This is my first restoration of a Coke machine and it has been in the making for years.  Bought the machine in 2004 but didn't start working on it until 2006.  After 5 military moves, 1 year remote, and one year deployed, I am finally getting the pieces of this machine back together.  I am on the hunt for a couple of parts and hope someone here can help me out.  I need:

1 door hinge
Inside trim (not sure what it's called) it holds the black plastic pieces in place that cover the insulation

I'll see if I can attach a photo.

Hi Creig and welcome!
Do you need the main door hinge or a coin door hinge?
The Breaker Strips (that is what they are called) can be obtained from Fun-Tronics.
Part Number 62D

I need a main door hinge.

I have the Breaker Strips...I'm missing a couple of the aluminum trim pieces that hold the breaker strips in place.  I've checked the online stores but can't find these pieces anywhere.  Any suggestions?

OK - listed as a Breaker Strip Cover in my VMC-33 manual - not even listed in my VMC-27A manual. It says that 6 are needed, so you have a sample since they are all identical. Seems like they would be an easy part to fabricate.
Sorry -wish I could help - someone may have them.
Good Luck!

I'll try to bump this up to see if anyone out there has come across these parts lately...

Still need a main door hinge and the "Breaker Strip Cover" aluminum strips.  Additionally, I need the bezel for the bottle chute and the flapper for the bottle chute.

Would appreciate any suggestions on where to find these parts.  I've searched online and checked with a local machinist who said he could "probably" do the hinge ($$$$$).  Thinking it's just a waiting game now hoping to come across the parts I need.  Would love to finally get this machine completed.

Thanks for the help.
