Is this a vendorlator 63 maybe? It is embossed.

Not sure who made it but has 9 shelves so not a 63. Looks like that has your name all over it :-)

There was a guy wanting to do a museum here in St. Louis,
He pops on here from time to time.. sodamuesum... name is Tom...
has a ton of great stuff too... maybe hook up with him... And if you could put it on old Route 66... with a small vintage gas station to draw that crowd.
Oh I can help you dream!.... Would be cool..

Would be really cool. I think he was looking to put his in St. Charles. Did talk to him a few times about it, but not sure he had interest in a partnership. I was going to sell off all my stuff at one time, but changed my mind.

I think those are some great ideas! Now, I just need some business partners! Whoever has a bunch of gas station stuff and diner stuff, let's get going!

Interesting that 9 selections would only vend 63 bottles. Learn something new everyday!!

I guess it is due to the short shelves. It is a really odd machine. It is almost like it was thrown together from spare parts. It was really hard to restore. Once it comes apart nothing fits right. It took me forever to realign the front door. Here is an inside shot. There are a bunch of pics of it in the photo album. The trim on the machine was origionally painted but it is aluminum so I had it polished and clearcoated. It turned out really nice. It had a ton of aluminum to polish.
