Title: New H63A, sticker questions, etc. Post by: ethomps on June 29, 2008, 09:42:23 pm Ok,
I just picked up my first machine today for $75. (I'm a complete newb to these things, but always wanted one) First thing I did was to remove the woodgrain vinyl sticker from the door. It is painted red underneath and I found a few interesting things (at least to me) There is old sticker residue in the middle top of the machine that says "Enjoy a Fresh New Taste Orange Crush" Was Orange Crush a coke product? Would this have been the original sticker that was on the machine? Also, there is old sticker reisidue under the bottle cap opener that says "5c Deposit Required On All Bottles Taken From Premises Thanks" Is this another original sticker that would have been on the machine originally? Also, it is missing the amount sticker on the front, believe it should say "10c" Can reproductions of these stickers be purchased somewhere? My dad and I are going to do an amateur restore on the machine as a father/son project and put it in my basement bar. Thanks everyone, I'll have lots more questions as we get going.

I love the 63's.. not sure about the Orange Crush, but the front door colors I don't believe is original..Thats a good price, especially if it cools..

Is seems complete, and cools bottles ice cold. What color should it be? How would I find out the original color scheme, etc so I can restore to original.

The price sticker is available from any of the vendors whose advertise here, and the deposit sticker was most like ly an add on, depending on the store/shop the machine was located at. I haven't seen this one dor sale, but it wouldn't be difficult to reproduce on computer. As for the color scheme, search the photo galleries here, and of course Google is your friend for other pictures. You have a nice machine, and making it a project with your Dad will makes it that much more satisying when it's complete. Oh yeah, be warned, this is an addiciting hobby. :biggrin: Title: Re: New H63A, sticker questions, etc. Post by: loman4ec on July 03, 2008, 11:48:00 pm The sign on your machine is not original either. It is a later addition when they changed from Drink to Enjoy. This is probably when they added the woodgrain sticker. This is what you model Vendo 63 looked like from the factory.

A bit of paint and a scrub up and you'll have yourself a very nice machine for next to nothing... Didn't someone here do an orange crush 63... ? Dave |
