Wow Joey what a great find. You said you found these in a revene? Did they belong to someone or were they just setting in a ditch for you to go get? You said you split the machines. What else was there? It is a darn shame that the transition 7up is so rotted. Do you still have that 110 body? You should use that 7up 110 door and restore that machine and make a great turnaround. That is a rare find.  This is the kind of stuff that really makes me want to move back home!

We paid a small fortune for these, The revene has 35-40 machines in it, all came from a Royal Crown, 7up bottling plant. We paid alot for this load so he will come back with more. Hopefully something better pops up in the next load. I wish we could go down to the revene and take pictures and buy whats left. He is pulling other junk out of there and hauling it all to scrap. He had shelves all piled up and said he had guts to machines in the scrap piles. Keep your fingers crossed this could be a find of a lifetime.

Hey Pat I can leave the 85 Racks intact if you need them. It would save me time, but harder to ship. Let me know what you would do on one or both.

I'll take a RC81 if you find one.

If any RC 81s are found we have already discussed they will be restored, and then sold. Prices will be very reasonable.

Cool find... makes you think how many other Revenes are out there all grown over with grass and the machines just rotting away :down:
Great find... if you find an 81 bottle stack... and shelves, I'm interested...

Wow!... :jawdrop:
Where these down by that 7up plant in Willow?
the buildings there where just as bad.. I fell through the floor in one.. :Oo:
was pretty scary... would have loved to have seen that place about 30 years ago....
one building had bottles in crates stacked to the ceiling.... seriously thousands of bottles
I bought 6 crates full of bottles... I got there the day before and picked me a special pile
of bottles and nice, clean crates... 2 rusted out 7up Quikold standards..... :down:
hope he brings you the middle of the pile next...not in the ground yet and out of the rain.....
Keep posting....

Always wondered what that lyric meant in "Brown Eyed Girl"

Wow, Joey!  Looks like another decent haul!  That's great that you have found 2 VMC-110 embossed machines/doors...I hope someone brings these back to life!  Is the Ideal 49B embossed 7up and in decent shape?

What do the Ideal 35's look like? I have an interest in them if not too bad - maybe just a rack and mech if you will be parting everything out.  :laugh:  :laugh:


Title: Re: A large Parts machine find
Post by: coke_and_stuff on November 17, 2008, 02:48:07 pm
My buddy has already one ideal 35 pulled aside for him, He said one is VERY rough and for parts only, other is OK Im thinking about keeping one for myself as a momento of this amazing find. So one rack should be available, Coin mech conditions are unknown.
