Title: Basket case Vendo 39 restored
Post by: coke_and_stuff on July 24, 2008, 12:41:20 am
I posted these pics a few months ago, Basket case Vendo 39 that I picked up. I ended up using a donor cabinet for this more than worn out 39.

Another nice job Joey!
BTW - the SO Flag rod should be behind the coin mechs knockout arm. You want it to push the knockout arm into the rejector so nobody can insert a coin when the machine has no product to vend.

I do love those ALL red machines... I think they are far nicer than the two tone...

Excellent job Joey...

Wow Joey! That looks fantastic. What a great job. Most people probably would have parted that out. That paint work still looks wet.

Joey,

That machine looks great!  I will finally have the last remaining parts for my V-39 next week so we can put it all together to make sure it works and then tear it down for a total restoration.  Your after pictures give me something to shoot for.

I may be checking with you for a few tips along the way!

Again, great work returning that machine to it original glory!

Tim

Thanks guys, Tom thanks for the tip you are the coin mech guru! Next on the list is a Vendo 81D thats been sitting at a bodyshop for the last 2 years not getting anything done on it. I went by yesterday and picked it up. The owner was shocked I think I hurt his feelings. After the 81D is a 81A that I picked up while I was in CA for a steal at $350.00
