Title: vmc 149 Post by: vdubya21 on September 02, 2007, 03:29:40 pm hi,ive just got my first coke machine and its a VMC149,it looks to be complete and was wondering if anyone on here owns one aswell,im looking to restore and need to find a manual and the correct decals for it,i found it on ebay here in the uk as ive been looking for about 7 years,it was damn heavy though but it just got through the front door and the shipper who delivered it said it took 4 guys to get on truck,theres a picture on here of it,its the 56 model with red down bottom and white on top,thanks for any help. andy.

can you post your pix? all members here really like to see each others machines. i am also based in UK & have seen how the people here help each other with whatever issues they have with their machines. ive not really had much call on that assistance as my two machines have been in storage, pretty much since i got them and i have no experience to pass onto you however, im sure you will get all the assistance you will need from the soda team across the pond GP Title: Re: vmc 149 Post by: collecture on September 02, 2007, 05:47:25 pm There were two types of VMC 149 - a manual crank and an automatic version. I have a manual for each of them, but I do not have either scanned yet.
I am sure a manual can be obtained from Fun-Tronics [(301) 371-5246] or www.sodajerkworks.com or www.sodamuseum.com as I believe all of them have it for sale. Title: Re: vmc 149 Post by: globalcompressors on September 02, 2007, 06:29:02 pm I've got the same machine here in the shop...
If you need pictures of all the original decals and locations, I can snap a few pics if you would like.
