Post by: GreginNM on March 26, 2009, 03:55:57 pm I believe it's an American Vendors machine, but one of the other experts will surely chime in. I don't have my book here with me, and I believe it's pictured in there. Am I far off, guys?

Sorry, Kidding. I've never seen one before, but it rates high on the cool factor. My concern is finding available parts, let alone knowing what's missing. Doubtful a manual will be easy to locae Title: Re: What is this machine? Post by: sodaworks on March 26, 2009, 07:03:19 pm It is a American Vendors machine. Pretty rare. Is it for sale?

I would like to know the model number and manufacturer off the ID tag. And to reiterate, the seller will own this for some time at the asking price! Title: Re: What is this machine? Post by: Seven181 on March 27, 2009, 03:02:28 pm That's an American Vendor Model 124. Had one a long time ago! They are heavy as hell!!!! :darn: He will have it a long time at that price.

Really interesting with the three crank handles on top. What do they do? -S Title: Re: What is this machine? Post by: collecture on March 27, 2009, 05:18:37 pm Really interesting with the three crank handles on top. What do they do? I believe it is a 3-selection machine Title: Re: What is this machine? Post by: Larry on March 27, 2009, 10:07:53 pm It is a three selection machine. I read about it in the back pages of Jeff Walters book. They made two styles a totally round one and a flat front one like this machine.
