Title: Nice VMC 340? Post by: mygoose101 on May 22, 2013, 12:55:45 am This machine falls where why would someone restore it or even paint it but I must say this looks pretty damn nice. Looks like it has a rather nice paint job. Where he placed the hand and bottle decal looks like that spot was meant for it. I know it's not a collectible machine as it's so large but looks cool none the less.

If someone have ability to do painjob. I think it wouldnt be so costly to make a goodlooking piece like this (giant v44) from a low cost survivor. Title: Re: Nice VMC 340? Post by: collecture on May 22, 2013, 09:09:20 pm I worked on a (mechanical) coin mech for one of these and I asked the customer why he was restoring the machine. He told me he just wanted to be able to say he had the largest bottle vendor of the day (1950's).
