Creighton Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: davethebirdman on March 08, 2008, 02:18:34 am That must rank as best find so far this year..... Thanks for posting... Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: Kilroy on March 08, 2008, 09:20:37 am Maybe I'm too cynical, but the first time I read the ad, I thought scam. I hope it's legit, and someone here lands it,
Gah, maybe it's the endless winter that's maybe me so cranky.... Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: Ltransam on March 08, 2008, 09:29:59 am Glen , Are we gona see mor Pictures of the T-Bird :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Leonard P.S. Sorry But Can't help it :laugh: Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: MoonDawg on March 08, 2008, 10:54:28 am The T-bird has been crushed :darn: but I was hoping maybe Creighton could
squeeze it into his trailer and keep it for me for a few months or years? :biggrin: I have heard nothing back from the seller so maybe someone beat us to it? If I do hear from them, I will send the money to Linda, Creighton said she is going that way. If there is a machine, it is priced low enough to have a furniture mover to pick it up. Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: MCarter on March 08, 2008, 01:45:33 pm I emailed him about 8:30 last night and got an email back a few minutes ago telling me it was sold. Hope someone on the site gets it. :darn:
Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: MoonDawg on March 08, 2008, 02:35:50 pm I got the same e-mail......SOLD
Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: BrianB on March 08, 2008, 10:13:14 pm I guess I got into this a little to late! What exactly was the guy sellin'? The item is no longer posted due to it's sale. Just curious what it was.
Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: MoonDawg on March 08, 2008, 10:29:14 pm It was a Vendo 81A, a pretty nice machine. Great teamwork and thanks for the lead Hummer.
Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: Creighton on March 09, 2008, 02:18:48 am Darn shame it sold Glen,
The pics getting it into the Scotty camper would never compare with the T-bird, but would have been fun. Agree great teamwork!! Creighton Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: ducatihummer on March 09, 2008, 11:49:16 am NP, I saw it, and figuted I had to send it out. Hoping someone on here could have picked it up. I have a vendo 110 that needs to be compleatly restored, and an 81D that just needs some minor work, then I'll start looking for a 56. once it gets a little warmer, I'll be sending out some posts asking for help like any other newbie restoring for their first time. You guys seem great. If I come across anything else I'll be sure to post it up.
Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: Jim on March 09, 2008, 12:02:45 pm If I can acquire a good copy of the T-Bird with front seat soda machine, I'll recommend it lands in the calendar somewhere... Perhaps, in an inconspicuous location...
I have an old photo of two repairmen moving a machine in a wheel barrel! What ever works... Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: MoonDawg on March 09, 2008, 02:30:44 pm Ok Jim, I sent the pic's I had to you.
It was Terry's idea to take the picture, he said that SMC would get a kick out of it. Guess he was right. It is kinda' funny looking back on it :biggrin: Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: Jim on March 09, 2008, 03:54:21 pm Got them ! ! !
Thanks again. Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: bubba on March 09, 2008, 08:18:20 pm I love that pic.. :biggrin:
Title: Re: Anyone near Portland, OR... this may be of interest Post by: SIGNGUY on March 09, 2008, 09:00:23 pm I love that photo too... it's not my computer desktop image... too funny... I'm sure people at work will now ask, what in the *#*#($( is that.... can't wait to tell them the story behind it so they can confirm I'm not the only one crazy about Soda machines... :biggrin:
