Title: NICE dual select C-55 Indianapolis - $800 BIN
Post by: collecture on January 02, 2015, 11:27:14 am
Usually the sides are all scratched up from transporting around.
Looks like it is missing the spacers, but they can be made.
If I were closer, I'd have it in my house....

That's a very nice one, dual select and light up sign, good price too.  Agreed, I'd probably own it too if it was  close

Would this be considered as the most desirable square top machine?

I'd say it is up there due to the small size and light up sign.  The USS-64 is also a decently desirable machine but for more practical purposes.  The USS-64 is a slant-shelf machine that vends both bottles and cans.   Nice USS 64's go for $500-ish.  This C-55 is definitely more rare.

As Tom said it's missing the Bottle/Can shims.And maybe ??? One back spacer And if the vend Motors don't work . Your gonna need to by a Donner machine or hope to find spare motors . Other then that a good price

Very nice indeed.

My wife and I are over in Lansing, Michigan area doing a little antiqueing this weekend, which is exactly 3 hr 30 mins away from this machine.

I have a non lighted sign one, would love a lighted one.

Unfortunately with her with me, this one can't just show up in the garage ............ :oops:

When I first saw that machine I wondered how he got his car into his house. That is one nice garage.
