Title: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: Seven181 on July 18, 2009, 07:12:42 am Well, picked this rare machine up! It is Servit A 250. This was the first cup machine Dr Pepper ever used. Someone took off the DP signs and put on Coke stickers. I am going to restore it to a DP machine. Neat that is has the crank handle and dispenses only one flavor. Also has the overhang on the top to light up the sign.

Post by: collecture on July 18, 2009, 09:31:01 am Only seen one other of those and that was 8 years ago on eBay and the guy wanted a mint for it like $1500. Cool! I'd add one of those light setups to an S-48 if it wouldn't interfere with the badge.
Congrats Brian on getting a Servit! Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: mznb1u on July 18, 2009, 10:20:53 am Brian,

Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: BrianB on July 19, 2009, 01:34:19 pm Excellent find! I love unique looking machines in a brand other than the norm. This is going to be really sharp looking when restored, I can't wait to see it lit up!!
Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: Seven181 on July 19, 2009, 01:58:58 pm Started to look it over today. It should be easy to restore. I like that the overhang lights up the DP sign!

I don't think I have ever seen another like it. I've seen it before...mainly on signs I think...but still uncommon. Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine!

Is this model in your avatar...? Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: Seven181 on July 20, 2009, 10:32:13 am No, this is a Servit 250. The one is my avatar is a Bev-Vend 200.
Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: Jim on July 20, 2009, 10:43:08 am Ok, Thanks for the correction!
Perhaps I could acquire a good photo of the machine for use in the Soda machines Section since I do not have a photo for reference... If so, at your leisure... PM me if necessary.

Do you want pics of the machines as is or when they are restored? Brian Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: sodaworks on July 20, 2009, 01:01:47 pm Nice find! I kinda miss my cup machines.
Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: Jim on July 20, 2009, 07:27:56 pm Brian,
When you have it restored is fine! Thank you ! ! ! Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: oldskoolcoinop on July 20, 2009, 09:43:22 pm I love that light up overhang. So retro. Do those old cup machines have ice makers?
Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: Seven181 on July 20, 2009, 09:49:24 pm Not the early cup machines with the crank handles. Some of the later cup machines have ice makers. The 1960's one's. I am into the old school one's, where you fill the tank with syrup and it uses a water line.
Brian Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: mrsoda on July 21, 2009, 02:49:51 pm great looking machine brian, i might have a mint sign for that machine, let me know the size jeff
Title: Re: Just got this awesome cup machine! First Dr Pepper Cup Machine Made for DP! Post by: Seven181 on July 22, 2009, 09:25:21 pm Thanks Jeff! I will get the size needed and then we can talk. I will need to find the sign for it, so maybe you have one you will part with. I will let you know.
