Title: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: VMAXMAN on May 19, 2012, 05:39:55 pm ALMOST complete...anyone know where I can get a mirror and cigarette topper?
Anyone have photos of what these look like restored or what year they are? Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: collecture on May 19, 2012, 07:20:41 pm Can I get a solo pic of the coin mech?
I have a New Old Stock/New In Box DeGrenier mech, but have yet to figure out what vending machine it goes to. Thanks in advance! Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: VMAXMAN on May 19, 2012, 08:00:00 pm no problem...I'll take a pic in the morning and post it.....does anyone know of a forum or where to get parts?
like I said...everything is there and works....except for the topper and mirror (and the machine is straight as an arrow and rust free! the paint is real bad tho...lol) Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: davethebirdman on May 20, 2012, 02:43:42 am I'm not sure what you mean by a topper... But the mirror you can get from any glass company Nice machine... As for what they look like when restored I think you should just stick it in google and see. You could take a look at the magic Curtis does and try and replicate that..

Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: VMAXMAN on May 20, 2012, 10:56:05 am this is the coin mech in mine
and by topper I meant the part like on that machine that says "cigarettes" I'm thinking mine is older than that one Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: davethebirdman on May 20, 2012, 11:33:07 am By the looks of the other one I would imagine the Cigarette isgn is a decal??? If so that can be made too... If that is all you are missing I think you did very well.. Good luck Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: MaineT on May 20, 2012, 12:02:05 pm You can make this pretty easy. Its on clear thick lexan with aluminum behind it. I don't have the piece it goes on right now, that is out for paint.
Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: MaineT on May 20, 2012, 12:05:22 pm There is also a chrome bracket that the mirror sits in at the bottom that you would need.
Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: collecture on May 20, 2012, 12:28:16 pm Thanks guys! But my search continues...
MaineT - that is a quarter only rejector. What does your mech look like? VMAXMAN - I think yours is newer than MaineT's because of the electromagnets involved. The mech I bought is still in the box and has a nickel/dime rejector with a nickel change tube. I am leaning toward a DeGrenier candy machine with 5 & 10 cent purchases, but am looking for some confirmation somewhere. Thanks again for taking the time to post pics! Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: VMAXMAN on May 20, 2012, 12:39:32 pm yea....missing the top bracket (aluminum??)and anything that goes around the mirror

Here you go, Looks like might be another strike.
I sent you a PM, did you get it? Title: Re: my new toy...Dugrenier cig machine Post by: MaineT on May 21, 2012, 07:52:14 pm Vmaxman, If you end up needing to fabricate it, let me know and I can get you good pictures with dimensions. I'm actually not using the mirror, but the shipping might cost more than a new one. It has a reverse decal on it that says dugrenier, but it is starting to flake a little around it. I'm not going to original with mine and turning it into something else cause it had rust issues.
