Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: RC kid on September 26, 2009, 08:38:10 pm What are these things worth now days? I have a really nice Pepsi, embossed and restored.
Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: zadd on September 27, 2009, 09:49:15 am I don't know the value I just always liked the way they looked and always wanted one . I heard that you can remove the back shroud and it will dispense long neck bottles ? I just did this one for a movie room . Cold cokes and pop corn . Now I just have to fined and restore a vintage popcorn machine . I want to do another one but in a beer theme like coors original for the garage :)
Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: RC kid on September 27, 2009, 10:30:15 am I like these little machine too. I would love to have a coke VMC 33 to go along with the Pepsi I already have.
I am having a hard time getting my machine to dispense the larger bottles. What brand are putting in your coke machine. Thanks Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: zadd on September 27, 2009, 06:33:10 pm Movie room isn't done yet so I'm not running the machine yet but it is only going to be for the small 6-8 oz glass bottles of cokes that you can buy at any grocery store. So I take it that removing the back shroud behind the vending wheel doesn't work then to dispense beer bottles ?
Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: RC kid on September 27, 2009, 11:04:36 pm Yeah, the Pepsi bottles are a little larger (10oz) so I am running into an issue there.
I have tried several different bottles and they are either a fraction of an inch to big and I can't close the door or they are to small and the empty (sold out) lever isn't triggered or depressed, leaving the coin mech locked. I guess I'll keep searching for a bottle that works. Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: coke_and_stuff on September 27, 2009, 11:24:57 pm Both machines look great, a 33 is one of the machines you rarely see around here. Ive never owned one but do know where a nice 7up 3D 33 sits.

Are you going to get it? and is it reasonbly priced? Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: coke_and_stuff on September 28, 2009, 11:28:49 am Its not for sale at the moment but when it does come available as with the entire collection I will be selling it all off for him. He bought it about ten years ago out of a ladies backyard here in town for $25.00
Joey Title: Re: vmc 33D Post by: zadd on September 28, 2009, 11:50:43 am Sounds like a deal . I'll take it :)
