It's an early conversion of a glass-door LaCrosse converted to a can vendor,  have seen them on occasion.  :laugh:

I think its a selectivend conversion. They are the same company that converted the V39 and V83 to slant shelf machines. It defiantly looks odd.

I have looked at the pics several times and I can't tell how the cans get to the delivery chute!
Is it a four selection machine?
How does a can in the far left column get to the right side?

It looks like there is a piece on the door that funnels the cans over to the chute.  If you look close enough on the door, the metal is a slightly different color

OK - I see it now.
Wonder how it is configured? If the can is dropped out of the stack parallel to the front of the machine, then it must be a steep incline to the the vending door. The can would slide and not roll down it I guess?
