Hey

Check out this strange coin mech. It must be an early electrical model.

Here is the coin door area.

The wiring hanging down appears to be the  bottle door light

Kevin,

I am watching one of these 126 on ebay. Do you mind if I ask what you paid and how far you went to pick it up.  

Thanks,

Keith

Hey

Over all I think it is a pretty good machine. I just plan on cleaning, replacing the two fan motors, t-stat & the wiring harness. Plus I will need to  get the light working but wont be a problem.  It does look like a V63 with a growth problem or on steriods. It will be nice to offer 14 selections.  I do need two additonal shelves.

I am a proud owner of a new machine. If you look at the pictures I posted you can see my other machines in the background. I will be moving the boat trailer out of the garage this weekend & that will reopen my coke machine repair area. You know the wife's van has to be inside all the time. She does draw a line there but for the most part she lets me entertain myself with coke machines.

Hello

I paid $64 on ebay but the listing stated that it did not cool. I am sure it is an electrical problem but wont know for sure until the next few days.

I sent my son to pick it up 200 miles each way across the state of SC plus I had him take one of his friends. So I will pay them a full days worth of work so I would say the pick up cost will be right around $200.  Food, gas,pay, soda's etc.

I think I got a great deal on this

Your coin mech looks to be a National Rejector (NRI) model 7600 series single price vendor-changer, probably a .10 coin mech.  I love playing with those things!  COINCO and MARS units are okay but nothing beats the sound of an old electro-mechanical coin mech eating your change and spitting nickels at you!!

I was just looking at your evap picture again and noticed your thermostat doesn't have any control feature.  My Vendo 63 has an identical thermostat.  Did Vendo step away from a controllable thermostat during the 60s?  One of those things that make you go.....hmmmm.....  '<img'>
