Title: Finds of the week, a few roundtops
Post by: coke_and_stuff on August 19, 2007, 10:44:33 pm
First off I would like to thank Marvin, Thanks for the trade and finally making it happen! The VMC 27, Cav 64, and the Vendo 80 front main door are all from Marvin, The Vendo 39 was a ebay steal at $160.00

Is the V39 complete?
Even if it isn't, you are way ahead at $160.
Great scores Joey!

39 is missing the drum, and the coin and cap boxes, Machine is probably the most straight 39 ive seen, no beltline rust very very clean, The seller has a bunch more stuff and is going to give me a call when they get it all dug out of storage.

I'm here, I just don't post very much.

As far as the stuff goes.  You all can thank Audiobeer for the 64.  I have had the 27 for quite a while and just could not get motivated to finish it up.
The 80 door is a pretty good story...   A friend of mine called one day and said "hey I was driving down the street and a guy was wheeling an embossed machine out the door with a for sale sign on it."  He went to check it out and it was a Vendo 80.  The guy wanted $600.00 for it.  I offered 500.00 and my friend paid for it and brought it to me. 

The cabinet is going to become an 81 I am getting painted right now.

I hope to have it back in a few weeks and should also get the Pepsi 81 in the next few weeks from a different painter.

Marvin
