Title: please help question on a vendo 56D Post by: newguy123 on September 18, 2012, 08:48:19 pm I am looking to buy a HA Vendo 56D. It takes 12 oz cans and i want to know if i can modify it to use 12 oz bottles. I want to use it for beer? And by chance what is a good price? I have heard from $100-300. Thanks so much

check out this conversion from bottles to cans I did a while ago & reverse the steps, works either way...http://soda-machines.com/discussions/index.php/topic,8208.0.html (http://soda-machines.com/discussions/index.php/topic,8208.0.html) although this one was a Vendo V63 the can rack actually came out of VF56D. & $300 for a solid/straight machine is a good price especially if it has a lightup sign/marquee. in running & compete condition of course.

Its in pretty good shape but does not have a light up sign. I think I can get it for $200. Now I need to find that part.

Thanks Drew Title: Re: please help question on a vendo 56D Post by: newguy123 on September 19, 2012, 12:01:00 pm these are the pics of device that distributes the cans. When you pull up on the lever it pushes the can out. As you can see in the one pic the bottles is too big. If anyone knows what model to use to replace this system so it will do 12oz bottles. And if anyone one has one for sale at a reasonable price i can be reached at spencerd150@gmail.com

Somebody will trade you I'm sure! |
