Post by: Smallblock on December 14, 2012, 11:17:54 pm
EDIT
(Now i have buy what i looking for from here)  :happydrinkers:

This thread is not actually more



Hi! Does anyone have a coindoor for vendo 56  
And interest to sell and send to Sweden ?

Complete or an empty shell
it doesn´t matter if it have dings or rustholes

Even similar doors from milk or other vendo/vmc machines without hole for crankhandle/opener can be interesting.  
(vendo 80,81,110 and 144)


I'm Also interested to buy the embossed "drink Coca Cola" letters (cut out) from an rusted out donor 56 cabinet door, or letters with the same size. (mine also has also bad letter embossing)

Welcome to the Site! 

Is your Vendo 56 a Roundtop or Squaretop?  The coin doors would be different.

As far as finding some embossed lettering side panels and doors pop up eBay pretty regularly.  Try searching just "coke machine".

I have a couple of panels from the inside lids of a Westinghouse Master cooler. Not sure if they are what you need or not but here is a link to give you an idea of what the lettering looks like.

Mine still have some paint on them and have been removed from the actual lid. I will get you some pictures if your intrested.

I'm thinking about parting out a machine...pm me and we can talk price. The one I have has the hole for the crank handle.

Thanks

If you don´t think it´s a "rare part" for Westinghouse restorers it could be interesting for me.
it´s difficult to see exactly measure at the pictures but if you want you can e-mail me information about lenght of lettering and price.

I dug them out tonight and they are alot worse shape than I remember, they have some pitting. I picked them up to weld into a set of reproduction Westinghouse lids but found a set of restorable originals that I decided to go with.

 :smile: OK
Do you have the lenght of the lettering ?
Only between C and a. Not the "looping ribbon" which go longer than the lettering.

Maybe my enunciation looks strange but i´m not so skilled to speak/write English :Oo:

First off Welcome to SMC!

Your English is just fine.
Regret to inform, the parts you have requested are in high demand.
To acquire same will be expensive.
I ship to Sweden twice a month so if you need any help please let me know.

I measured from the C to the tip of the A and came up with 11-7/8 inches. I am guessing the embossing on your 56 is similar to the embossing on my CS-96 so I measured the lettering on the 96 and it was about 1/4 shorter.

I don´t have the letterings but if i meassure on a picture it seems be around 12 1/2".
"drink" is little bigger and there is som gap between C-loop and the L on the vendo56.

My restoration is not 100% original so this lid could be an alternative for me if no one else have an original (or similar) lettering.

to: Blind 1968 you can pm me about price (or write it here)

to: Creighton. Tanks! Maybe you have the lettering. i even try to find The vents (or grille) that´s are located on each side of the cabinet on roundtop 56.
I have seen similar vents on some mechanical squaretops to.
