Well I am packed up and ready to move. I ended up keeping the Jacobs 26 and I decided I am going to keep the 7up selectivend for a while. I am going to store them at my Mom's new house untill I get settled somewhere. I never would have thought I could have sold all of those machines in that amount of time and still make a profit on most of them. I am leaving in the morning and I will post to let everyone know when I get there.

Well I am here. It only took 14 hours total to get here. Home is now back in the heart of daytona Beach. This is the worst town in Florida, but I am so happy to be back with my sweetheart. She is the best. I just wanted to say thank you to everyone for helping me through this. Who could have ever thought I could sell 10 machines in a week and have them all gone in three. Wow that must be a record.

I might wait untill we figure out where we are going first before I buy more. I don't want to do this again. After all we could be moving in a month or two. Just in case I have already spoke to my old painter and storage owner. I am all set up if need be.

Heck I would have figured that you drove past and bought a few on your ride there. 
Glad the move went well.

Well I did get a call on my way down about a guy with a Jacobs 50 in NJ. If it would have been on the way I probably would have picked it up.

Glad to hear you made it. Wish ya lots of happiness.
I've been to Daytona, didnt care for it much.
Went on a lark many years ago, took a wrog turn and ended up
waiting on what seemed like hours for a procession of bikers to pass
before we could get turned around. As I remember, I dont think they
even reguarded the red lights.

Hey Josh, glad to have you back on board again. We made up some new rules lately. If one of us finds something good like a Jacobs 50, and we choose to pass it up..... We are now required to post it here in case someone else in the group can benefit from your lead.
What are you going to do with all your spare time and no soda machines to work on now
??Drum roll......................Enter Kito !!!!!!

Well you never know. I am already wanting a project. For now I have a topper gumball machine and an old parking meter to work on. For right now I am mostly looking for parts machines to sell off. I had alot of luck with that here last time. With all of the salt here most machines are beyond repair and I can generally buy them for next to nothing when they look really bad but most of the time the insides are still good and people always need parts.
