what would you offer for this machine based on this picture?

Maybe $25 - $50 if the cooling system works. V63's are pretty common and often sell in the $200 range for unrestored working machines. That one looks like it lost a fight with a truck. Unless you're looking for a parts machine I'd wait for another one.

Bryan is right on about the price. Based on the picture that
machine LOOKS like crap! But, if it didn't get hit by a truck and
is just plain filthy...........it may clean up real nice.
If not, you may be able to adapt this compressor into your
other machine.

owner said its always been stored inside and he had it since new, It would be great if it was only dirty. I can get replacement chrome parts for it off funtronics right?

Yeah I would say if you could get it for $25 0r $50
your getting a deal I also think this will
clean up real nice and could make a nice Pepsi
machine
This is just my opinion.

If the compressor works I'd pay $125 for it. It looks like a little TLC and it will look pretty good. I just bought one for around that much that was in a little better shape but cleaned up nice. You can see it here.

In that photo steve is this got a dent in the front ?
if not and it is just a shadow in that photo and the only
thing is the chrome and left over decal and or dirt
Now when you said bad shape what do you mean
bad shape chrome bent , left over decal's , dirt
or do you mean dents all over and missing shelve and other part's.

I have not seen it in person yet. I will see it this weekend. The owner said no dents, only cracked glass which is an easy fix. I really think it needs a good cleaning. Can I get parts for it from funtronics?

It looked to me like the small door and possibly bottle door itself were mashed bad on the latch side. If it's not beat to crap and it's just dirty or just the picture then it's running and worth closer to $200. If you're looking to restore it make sure you know what is there and what's missing... things like cap catcher, coin boxes, bezels, coin mechs, etc, etc can all add up pretty fast. As for parts at funtronics or sodajerkworks ... it all depends on what you need. They have some of the more common parts but not all.

I bet it is just dirty. The chrome at the bottom is actually Aluminum. It is an air intake for the cooling system so it gets dirty easy. I bet it will clean up.

You don't!
You clean this Coke machine up real nice.............
then you sell it or trade it for 2 or 3 Pepsi machines.
Save your restoration time and money, a good
investment project will come to your way soon enough.

you are right. How often do un restored vendo 39's pop up in the classifieds?

Vendo 39s are a dime a dozen, just be patient. Ive personally had about 6 of them. There was one on ebay this morning for $500.00 BIN with no drum.
