Squirt machines?

[Bob K]

Here's one!!

I wonder if it came from the factory this way.  The seller says he can see some white paint under the yellow, and no side graphics.

Hmmmmm... :'>

Yes, that would help I suppose.  Sorry (it was late).

I'd like to know what you folks think of this one.  I've kept my eyes open for an original Squirt 1960's style machine, so this one got my attention when I first saw it.  I guess it must be a conversion from another (7UP?) theme, though, with white paint being under the yellow.

Any thoughts?

I can't remember the link but there is a Vendolator square corner 110 that is done up as Squirt on Ebay right now.  Pretty good looking machine.  Too far away for me though.

Hey Bob - I have spoken to the seller (also named Bob).  He's located in northern AZ so I've been watching it also.  He says that he bought it from someone else and doesn't know too much about it.  Looks very clean and operational.

I found this old topic...the picture of the Squirt 81 on page one is almost exactly what I was looking for...has anyone done one like this or is it just photoshopped or drawn up?

This was a "fantasy" machine with an embossed Ideal 55A lettering stitched onto a generic V81, Squirt only embossed sliders & picnic coolers & some (few) chest coolers, although I recall a transitional square-cornered machine that floated through the discussion areas in the past as well, however as I recall it had a 3-D plastic sign for a marquee. It still looked nice though.

I got my yellow VMC 81 back from the painter today...they did a nice job. I also had them put in a bed liner going about 2 ft. up on the inside (pictures to come)... I had "magnetic" decals made so I could switch from a Squirt machine to an RC 81. Eventually I will probably have a vinyl decal made up, but it gives me options for now.

Ha! That was I great idea. I like them both. Sweet.

Looks great ! ! !
Excellent idea on the decals!

I need to find a reasonably priced generic 81 in decent condition so i can make a Grapette machine... I have an original porcelain door sign and two different sets of original decals for the upper sides of the machine...
