What is this thing worth?

Hello all,  I am new to this, so bear with me.  I have aquired a vintage Westinghouse coke machine.  It is a WC-44.  Unfortunately, I am having a hard time finding out anything about it!  Some questions I have are,
A-  What years did they manufacture this?
B-  Approximately what is it worth?
C-  How do I find parts?

The only part missing is the bottle rack, (big part, huh?)  This thing is all original, the compressor even works!  

Help!!!  Please!!!



Thanks

Too bad it's a Westinghouse and not a Vendo or Vendolator.  The westinghouse is kinda unattractive and parts are probably a pain to find.  You do not see these for sale very often and they do not command much of a premium so I would think long and hard before I sink much coin into it.

Thats what I was afraid of. Thanks.

According to the book the WC-44 was interduced in 1948.thay called it the poorman's Vendo-44 I have personley like this machine . But as you probly Know most like the light's.
They are Very hard to find parts for .I would be watching for a donner machine that not working with the parts you need & go from there .

Steve ebner's price guide says that in excelent/restored condition it is worth $2K.
