May have been a Royal Crown Machine or Squirt.... A little paint and a few decals
and you'll be good to go!
Stay on them about the pump too! Let's see the whole machine!
Good Score! Congrats!!

That shade of yellow I would say RC. Could that be the r-c at the end of the model number?'<img'>

i was wondering that myself.  i've been collecting photos and info on the various vendorlator 56's that folks have posted, trying to figure out how to tell the age.  it would be cool to know for sure.  i was wondering if anyone has tried looking for old salesmen in the fresno area?

also, on the subject of the uss64 front, has there been any effort to hybrid a vendo/vendorlator bottle/can machine?  something like 1/2 a bottle stack on the bottom and 1/2 a can stack on top?

maybe, just the engineer in me wondering.

Yea we bounced around mating the two different stacks awhile back. Sorry can't find the thread (and I think I started it :-(. It could be done but it would be very tricky. Easier to have two machines or a can/bottle vendor.

nice score! I agree, It may have been an RC Cola machine, the yellow is a bit to "Orange-gee" for Squirt.

The only problem is all square top RC machines I have seen are red and white. They switched their colors in the early 60's and this is a late 60's machine.

ah, that's what is going on.

i've been seaching the net for RC graphics and stuff for a restore and i kept seeing that.

the only orangy-yellow i've seen is in an old series of posts by curtis from Memory Lane Restorations and it was a "dads" refrigerator that he had done.
