Lol...well alright. Just curious on which is which, what is what. Im taking it the only real ones worth looking at are the slimmer models?

That is a Stoner 11 pull with gum/mint wheel.  Not sure what the actual model number was but it is a bit larger than a 180 and quite a bit larger than the junior model.  Same as the other Stoners only a lot bigger and therefore not as sought after.

Its been around a while.... offer them $300 and I bet they will take it... Im no expert on interchangeability, but you can always part it out. There must be double that in parts if the coin mech if complete and interchangeable with the theaters/180's, there has to be a set of 6 or 8 good pulls there, and the gum/mint wheel set up might fit other machines. You will also have a lot of spare parts for that project later!!

After that, you might break even on scrap metal if your back holds up.

The door would always make a good wall hangar in the garage, too.

DOH! Man I hate reposting...

Yeah I think it's a pretty cool machine. I get it's not as practical as the Jr's...but it still gonna get looks.

It's a single door Stoner. Sould be some older posts on this one. Great for parts, but not worth trying to retore.

They sometimes call these a wide body. They sit on a lower stand, too. This is an uncommon version of a Stoner Candy Machine.  RMS has picture posted on his site of one he restored. I think they look nice restored but i'd much rather have a Theatre, Junior, or Pastry machine.
