I'm looking into getting this machine from someone but I want to make sure everything is there besides the door that is missing. So if anyone has some photos of the machine that would help please post them for me. Last I remember he wanted to much for the machine anyway but I would still want to know how complete it is before I ask the price again. I dont think its worth more than $300 as it is...hinge broken/needs paint...dont even think it runs.

Look at my collection in the Photo Gallery - I have a 27A (upright model). It is basically the same except for the compressor unit.

Don't rule out the value of the parts. You can part out a machine and help others complete their projects while making a couple of dollars as well.

Yeah but then I just end up with an empty box laying around. I would cry parting out a complete box. I like the machine so much I might sale my 56b for money toward it. Thanks for the photos. Forgot to say it is a 27a

Yeah, I cry too when I part them out. It's almost a waste. I recently bought a 27 with broken hinges. So I felt there was little I could do other than part it out. And as for the cabinets, I almost never do anything with the cabinet afterwards. It just sits in the bone yard.

There's a Vendo 39 on Craigslist in Tennessee. It looks like it suffered from a serious strip down. Nothing left but the cabinet. Cabinet looks nice too.

Hmm wonder what is with all the broken hinges on these things. I'm not the worried about it though I can get a new set. Some idiot hand painted coors light on it. Guess we know what was in it at one point in time.
