That was the easy part- Worth restoring ? Title: Re: small 7 up machine Post by: Jared on June 02, 2014, 09:47:25 pm cool little machine
Title: Re: small 7 up machine Post by: Ltransam on June 02, 2014, 10:09:57 pm Genudoc The first one you posted about is in my town . I think it's over priced in my book .only single small bottle vendor Title: Re: small 7 up machine Post by: mygoose101 on June 02, 2014, 10:54:11 pm Yes, Cavalier 33. I don't think they are overpriced. It's a pretty cool little machine. Non embossed so you can restore it back to 7up or change the flavor. I just wouldn't do it in Coke because they did make a embossed Coke 33, similar to the 27. They are small, only waist high. Restored it looks fantastic.

If you ever decide to sell it, Coke is by far the largest market. A full restoration would be a poor investment but a paint job is easy to do on this machine. (All red with a white door insert looks good). They are very small and have a unique vending system. If you could get one for around $750........... buy it and have some fun! :drinking: Title: Re: small 7 up machine Post by: Ltransam on June 03, 2014, 01:30:35 pm Opps!!! Mygoose101 Sorry :Oo: What I really met to say was that the one in Hamilton was over priced , But like Moondawg said IF??? it worked & Cooled & Vended properly and was Complete yea $750 a good deal but not $1100+ Title: Re: small 7 up machine Post by: davethebirdman on June 03, 2014, 01:32:55 pm I'd pay $1100 for it if it were in my town.
Do you think it would fit in the overhead locker on an aeroplane. I hear Delta have big overhead lockers.. Title: Re: small 7 up machine Post by: mygoose101 on June 03, 2014, 03:12:37 pm I just would never restore a generic machine in Coke if that same machine was offered in a embossed version. Actually, I think that would go for any flavor soda machine. I think that would be the poor man's version of the embossed version.

The C-33 is not like the C-27. The C-33 system slides out just like most uprights. It is very similar to the C-51 style with a line running up the body for the evap. |
