Post by: sc1101 on August 31, 2013, 10:56:10 pm That whole story and no mention of girls changing on side of road??? Lol I think the size of that victor is perfect. Great find. I'm sure it was nothing for Brian he's used to picking up those big machines. That was probably light compared to the lunch-o-mat. :biggrin:

Post by: Ltransam on September 01, 2013, 07:05:55 pm Thanks guys :drinking: the Pepsi is cool but you can see rusty areas in the paint on a couple sides .but hey it was just painted white then silkscreened so still nice even though it almost 70+ Title: Re: iT'S been Crazy !! Post by: coinopgullwing on September 01, 2013, 08:31:05 pm I have an old memo from Pepsi that was sent to all pepsi bottler on feb. 4th 1942. It showed what machines and how many of each were available before the government enforced the war order. That way the bottlers could order machines before they were property of government for the scrape
