Title: Vendolator VF56-B Pepsi Machine
Post by: kahonwes on April 17, 2007, 07:19:38 pm
Well I said I wouldnt buy another odd machine but someone had one in decent shape, so I bought it.  though the coin mech needs replacing, its dirty as hell.  But it cools great and just needs a paint job, not much rust.  I rigged it so I can just pull the bottles out.

Anyone have one of these or know anything about them...  I'll post some pics soon.

Yeah I found out alot mulling through the net later on, and well I guess I want to know, first what are these tiny suckers worth, and no I'm not selling it, its kewl lol,  and does anyone know where and what size bulb this thing takes.  and who might have parts for these.  Its intact but I think the celenoid that released the bottles is rusted out.

k - thanks
