I'm selling a vendo 81 milk machine. It is on ebay, take a look. I also have several soda signs as well.

I just love those milk machines. The one that Kurtis restored looked and probably is perfect.
Don't think one of those will ever turn up over here.

They must be pretty rare. How do they compare in price with other V-81's??

Well my milk 81 did not reach the reserve price. If anyone is intrested PM me. $2200 is the asking price. That is a great deal on a machine in this condition. It even has the box on top that is missing on most of these machines.

If it vends 72 cartons I wonder why they call it an 81?

    I'm not sure if milk cartons are available in this size anymore, but this machine would look dynamite if painted in an Orange Juice theme!........Eric?

Oh yea! I could see this machine in a nice bright Orange , maybe like a Tropicana Orange juice machine. that would be a knockout theme.

All this talk of what could be, someone here needs to take it. It is a great machine. I think the white with black spots would be very cool.

It is  to put (empty) cartons of milk in to display what is in  the machine for sale.

And you get get somebody to airbrush the rear of the machine with a cow's behind and utters hanging down.

You all have so many great ideas for this machine, I might have to keep for myself!
