I have been searching for a Vendo 44 for a long time but the prices on them can be pretty crazy. I was finally able to buy one recently that was a great deal. It runs and cools, but the coin mech and coin mech door, etc is missing from the front.
So, I will be on the hunt for a door and mech if anyone has one laying around!
I also have 2 Vendo 39’s that are fully complete survivors. I am curious if any parts from a 39 can be used on a 44, such as door latches, mech, etc? Or are they not related machines at all.

I will also be needing everything that goes on the back of the coin mech door as well, such as cap catcher, etc.

Two questions, what is your definition of crazy prices for a 44 and what do you consider a great deal? I'm asking because you are missing a lot of money in parts so when you complete that machine I bet your great deal will fall into the crazy price category. I'm hoping it does have the bottle rack inside?

The 39 is a totally different machine with no interchangeable parts that come to mind. I don't deal in parts so perhaps others will chime in but missing the coin door means you are most likely also missing the bezel and coin mechs aren't cheap for this machine. I'm not sure what you have into the machine but it might serve you better selling what you have and starting over.

 

I’ve got $150 into it.

That's a nice price for a vintage machine in my opinion.

I hope you are able to locate the pieces you need.

Where are you located?  I have a change giver coin mech that will fit your Vendo 44.

Put me in line after fire guy for the mech.
