If you had a photo, it would be helpful. Is the machine all red with a white top and tapering white sides with "Have a Coke" ? You said 4 select, 4 buttons across the front just below the marquie? Probably an early 60's machine. I personally like this type of machine. There was another 6 select made with a turn dial selector on the front around the same time period. Pretty cool!

Hi have this old 1960 Westinghosue WB78-B4-D Can and Bottle machine. Runs very cold but needs change maker and lock. I was told this was the first can machine. Both Cans and bottles work.

Are the 4 inch caster wheels original?

I would like to know the estimated value?

hello & welcome to the board!

The price foil (sticker) & lock are carried by  funtronics I belive, you can check in the banner sections of our suppliers & advertisers.

Price wise about between $250-750.00 in my opinion, yours is the mid-size model, the casters were an option from Westinghouse, handy when you had to move themachine in at night when the service station closed.
