Well I ventured over to Indiana today to go look at some machines and I found these two machines. The one that stumps me is the Selectivend slider that is embossed 7up on the front. It has some slight surface rust but it isn't bad. It is complete and runs. Has anyone ever seen anything like this. It is a really neet looking machine. If I remember right the tag says that it is a SS63. The westinghouse is complete and really nice. Not a bad day. Has anyone ever seen one like the selectivend?

She is a great dog. She loves to smell the old soda in the machines. By the way I didn't mean slider in the topic I was referring to slant shelf. I was just out looking at it it is such a different looking machine and there is no info on it in the soda machines section.

Great score.... Never seen one like this... Vendolator
embossed their square tops early on (81 & 56 models)
I had a 56 embossed 7up on the bottom of the door.
It's great to see these still popping up.
Selectivend embossed the 7up early but not the Pespi
or Dr Peppers....Hmmmm
That should be a KEEPER! May be a one of a kind/last of its kind for now.... Amazing what is still out there....
Will look killer with fresh paint and the decals!
Way to go!...
You guys are begining to sway me to the square side!!!!!

The cool thing about it is it has aluminum trim all the way around it. It isn't just any trim it is about 2 inches thick. You can see in the pic how it sticks out. It was origionally brushed or anodized but it would look really nice polished.

I bet it's a early, EARLY 60s (before 1963)... Put this one in the
gallery with before and after images. And use a darker green on
the grill at the bottom and coin entry... That will really pop!

Hey Loman4ec, venturing over into Hoosier country, eh? Those are great finds! There's a guy that has a 7up really similar to that one that I see everyday on the way to work...It's been sitting outside awhile. My buddy mentioned to me that this thing was "just sitting in the yard" and bigger than big, it is!

The house it sits in front of is kinda....scary, to say the least. Haven't quite worked up the courage to knock on the door yet.
