A few stops in between :wow: . the next day we did some driving around and hit a REAL COOL JUNK STORE (His saying is IT'S NOT JUNK IF IT FITS IN YOUR TRUNK ) I like that. anyways Way to much cool stuff to list Right when you walk it there stands two Gas pumps restored $1200 ea. The wife would have killed me :oh: there was a bar there that had the rolled a tucked leather on it with matching stools old lanterns , signs and old fishing stuff there was Just a ton stuff. He did have a few machines at this shop he said and a few more over in his barn . I did buy a gum ball machine for $20 , so I will need to pick some mind on this .

I stopped at that store the last time I was up there and unfortunately (or fortunately depending on your point of view) it was not open. I will have to try the next time I get north. :drinking: Tim :drinking: Title: Re: A few thing's found Post by: Pat Pixley on August 02, 2009, 11:08:43 pm So Tim you know where I'm talking about over in Cheboygan ?

It Looks like it was burnt inside ? I'd think no more the $25-$50 Bucks Was the Slider Complet ? Was it Embossed ?? Was It a 35-55 ? 85 to big . And The gum It looks like the ones you see in the stor now $10 -$15 at most Leonard Title: Re: A few thing's found Post by: Pat Pixley on August 03, 2009, 01:00:03 pm Good Questions Leonard,
The Vendo 90 just the light box was burned out and the wiring was shot . The Ideal Slider was a 55 and missing the normal stuff rack , coin mech & the line cord was cut off. And you just killed me on the Gum ball machine I paid $20 for it :down:. Title: Re: A few thing's found Post by: loman4ec on August 04, 2009, 08:37:26 am yep the gumball is a cheep repop.
