Title: Value of Vendorlator VF 165 Post by: jennandspence on August 17, 2008, 02:28:03 pm Just curious. It runs. No pics of the inside. I'll get them later.
Thanks! Title: Re: Value of Vendorlator VF 165 Post by: jennandspence on August 17, 2008, 02:29:54 pm Interestingly... The only reference I can find to the model (other than the plate on my machine) is this - http://www.sodajerkworks.com/xcart/customer/product.php?productid=676&cat=8

I know Pat Pixley will tell you that "Friends don't let friends buy woodrain" but you have to save that barrel decal! :hopefull: Having grown up in Detroit as the son of a pharmacist, I know that Jim Vernors was a registered pharmacist and that his ginger ale is "a one of a kind soft drink"! Especially when it is poured over Stroh's French Vanilla ice cream to make a Boston Cooler. As far as the rest of the machine, I think that the yellow and green color scheme incorporating the Vernor's Gnome is the best! I used to sit on the curb across the street from the Vernor's plant on Woodward every year for the J.L. Hudson's Thanksgiving Day Parade when I was a kid. I always liked the big neon sign with the gnome. Good luck with your restoration!

There a big machine I think if a redo is going to happen I would go with that Vernor's yellow to make it pop. I would also have that barrel copied. If this is a buy and turn around and sell ,We need to see better photos (all 4 sides and the inside) before a price can be given. |
