My First Vendo 81

I picked this one up today. I had been emailing the seller off and on for nearly a year or so. We finally were able to decide on a price. I was lucky it was about 90 minutes from the house.
It's a nice original. The owner's brother worked for Coke for nearly 15 years and had picked this one up for them. They had stored inside ever since.
Thanks for the help earlier in the week. I was able to get it for $1200.

A fine example and hopefully you can get it back to mechanical vending...

The linkage is inside the door panel, I saved my large door mechanism out of my Vendo 110

Good deal and doesn't look like a bad machine at all.
Have fun!
