Been a long time since I have posted anything here or any site. But I just could not resist this time.

Found this restored Vend 81 B for the price of what an unrestored junker machine goes for now a days.

Still living the Dream!

Anything is possible.

I am tempted to keep it as the restoration was nicely done by Vintage Vending.

I am talking chrome lock bar, chrome main cabinet handle and custom On/OFF switch for the bottle door light.

2020 is off to a Fantastic start.

I bought a VMC 72 restored by Vintage Vending a few years ago and the restoration was fantastic. All the hinges inside coin door chromed or polished, maybe a bit too much but looked awesome.

Is Vintage Vending still in business? If so, anyone have the web link/contact name?
Thanks!
