I too, buy squaretop machines at the $100.00 range and clean them up and offer them for sale to the public. Their popularity is rising and I'm now getting up to $800. each for them, unrestored.
This Cavalier is in above average condition, with no woodgrain, it lights up, is capable of vending cans and it's Coca Cola, so it should sell at $1000 + retail. Unfortunately, if it were Pepsi or any other brand it would sit for over 2 years and finally sell for $500.00 max. in this store.
Nobody wants to buy an antique soda machine...................................................................................
........they all want "an old Coke machine"
I remember when I had to pay $1000. for my first Vendo 81, thought I was really taking a risk. '> The light up Cavalier 64 will become the 81 of the future.
