I found this beauty on CL just a few miles from me. Not that I'm a low baller but a machine in this bad a shape should at least be complete for what this seller wants.

But he doesn't realize he has the rusted out Ford Pinto, not the "similar unit" Ford Shelby GT500KR.

        Six case vertical, only missing shelves.   Bottle door can be replaced.  Easier to restore than a 110.....no coin mech or bottle stack.
        They are a very practical home machine, I think it's priced reasonably.

Seen a lot worse sell for more.
