I picked my Jacobs up today. The chap I bought it from had a lot of other coca cola stuff. He got it all from a prop company. Anyway, he put most of it, picnic coolers etc on Ebay and somebody came along and made him an offer on the lot.
All apart from one item that he didn't want. Some sort of Dispencer. Does anyone have any idea what it is and whether its worth anything. I'm not going to buy it but I'd like to tell the owner something about it and its worth.
By the way, the bloke that bought the lot was eying up my Jacobs and was desperately trying to get the seller to sell it to him. I'd left a £50.00 deposit and even though the seller was offered lots more than I bought the machine for he couldn't be budged. There are some decent people out there.
Here's some pictures. The only thing I can add is it weighs a ton has a metal container inside and is missing a stand.

Dave,
It looks like a Dole Deluxe.
If the price is right...I am interested. But unfortunately, I am not sure what the right price is. I don't know much about them yet. What is he asking or has he said.

Wonderful Coca-Cola dispensers. I love the first one, made by Dole way back in the day.
Nicknamed the outboard motor or motorboat model because it looks like one.
If he doesn't want much for it, I would totally grab it. I have always wanted one.

Kito & Jeff
I think he wants £200.00 for it. Not sure what that is exactly in dollars. About $320.00 maybe. I know it weighs a fair bit and there is no stand with it.
Much as I would like it I just haven't got the funds to stretch.
If anyone wants it here I am happy to pop down and pick it up and post it for you. I'd be happy to do that for anyone here. You'd pay exactly what I'd pay. Its the least I could do...

firemun and Dave,
Thanks so much for being so kind, but I should have been more clear. When I said , "I'd grab it", I meant if I were you.
I totally want one, and I will keep looking for one, but only locally.
So please, feel free to go for it, I am not in the running for it. But very nice of you to be willing to make it happen for me. Firemun, it's yours if you want it. But my suspicion is that someday you will find it for cheaper (especially with the shipping and all) somewhere closer to you.
But thank you again guys.

Dave,
You will find lots of great syrup dispenser info at our resident dispensers expert Steve's (racerx45) website.
He has an amazing collection. Check the Coca-Cola page here:
http://www.sonic.net/adcom/DC/DC.htm
And the other flavored dispensers here:
http://www.sonic.net/adcom/DC/DCother.htm
I'm sure Steve would be happy to answer any questions you have.
But please don't blame me when these sites start up a whole new collection and addiction for you.

Not electrical... They were connected to seiltzer type tanks
RacerX would know the correct names and funtions (As you can see he has a few  '> ) Bases pop up from time to time on eBay...
Also missing the the front splash and cup holder and there
are other pieces that go on the inside it may be missing.It's
priced a little too high I think with all that's missing...
Here is my Dole Super (Which I got parts to complete it
from Glen!!!! ) It's a couple years newer the Delux, which is that model he has.
