Just got back from my road trip at 4AM. I bought 2 milk machines and 2 American Vendors and that was all the room i had. This guy has a trailor full of machines and one with sign. I didn't get to see the one with the signs. Lots of machines in the shop also. He had the policeman sign repoped and has about 50 left out of 1000. You have to find your own base. I'll post a few pictures. Had a great time but it was a long drive. I think it was worth it.

More pictures

Kevin,

GREAT JOB! Nice finds! How is he on prices? I would have interest in that Pepsi 56 or any soda cup machines. Do you know if he has any? Looks like he might have some good stuff??


Brian

I sent you a PM.

His prices are real good on certain stuff and not so good on other stuff. He wants $6000 for the Pepsi light up. I could buy one restored for that price. He doesn't really want to sell it. He never owned a cup vendor but he's owned about everything else. He wants $8000 for the RC 81 door and you get the Coke 81 machine with it. The policeman stand up signs are $400 each without stand. I got the 4 machines for $1650.

Nice find!!!! Looks like some nice stuff!!!!!!!! Is the policeman double sided like the original?

I'd like to know more about this too.

The policeman is double sided but he didn't have a license so the back is blank. You could have some decals made for the back.

I would take to buy one? Iam interested in that popcorn machine in the background. Call me oe pm  me please.

          Kevin...... you have reduced your picture sizes down to
200 X 133 but this site will accept up to approx 800 X 600.
          Guess now you know how much we like pictures huh?
          Thanks for taking the time to share. Great find!  :happydrinkers:

Nice find! & thanks for sharing!  :drinking:

Excellent find Kevin ! ! !
Congrats on an early holiday delivery!

I agree with Glen, your photos are too small!
As long as the file size doesn't exceed 100KB, resolution and dimensions are irrelevant for uploading permissions. Changing the resolution down to 72 may reduce the file below 100KB; if not continue by incrementally reducing the dimensions until you get below the threshold. I've seen some large images(1000+pixels X 1000+pixels) posted that were below the limit.

nice find.

I've tried to reduce size and it just doesn't get it to 100kb.

Agree great finds!!
Just a note, copy the text you want to post with the picture to notepad or simliar.
Tried to start two new topics last night and even though the pics were under 100 the post failed and all text was lost with no error returned. With a copy in notepad you can try again without re-typing.

I too have lost text many times when posting  :darn:
I do something quite similar Creighton - I simply highlight the text; right click & left click copy. Same thing but instead of using Notepad, I'm utilizing the Windows clipboard.

BTW - Nice find Oscar - glad you came back with something. Too far away for me!  :down:

   Oscar !!! Outstanding Find !!! 


                      Now I know whos been in my Garage >>>>> :laugh:

I wonder where he got the Hood's machines.  I have 2 Hoods General Vending machines I got from a fellow that lived in Michigan close to where the old Hoods Bottling Building was located.
