WOW, I just bought a vendo 90 for 50  dollars.  My girlfriend thought that I was crazy and so did I until I found this webpage.  Now I feel that I am not alone.  So my first question is does anyone have a bottle opener bezel for a Vendo 90. Thanks

She's right. You're crazy.
Ah, if I had returnable 12 oz Pepsi bottle every time I heard that... anyway, welcome to the asylum.  tounge

If someone here has one, they'll pop in soon enough. Also be sure to check the supplier links on the front the page.
and one last thing, ... let's see some pics

My wife thinks I'm crazy, but she does love the COLD beer!
and the hobby keeps me out of trouble.
I looked at the file photos of the V90 and apparently there were several variations of the machine as it was produced over a number of years.
A picture of your machine would help because different bezels might have been used depending on when your machine was made.

Welcome to SMC!! You are definitely among friends here. We would love to see a photo of your "new" machine. Where did you get it from?

Thank you all for the help and advise.  Just a little off topic.  I am having trouble posting pictures.  I was shrinking my files with IrFanView but they were no able to be posted.  The files were too large or the wrong type. 
As for the soda machine.  I purchased it off of e-bay.  When I first saw it it was listed as a Vendo 63 for 200 and it dropped to 50 within the month. I later found out that it was a Vendo 90A.  It was located only 4 miles away so I thought that it would be a good idea.   I have owned the machine for almost a month and spent most of that time doing research on this web page.  I downloaded a few manuals and tips that people have posted and started to slowly take it apart.  So far I removed the shelves, bottle dispenser, and condenser/cooler.  I soaked the shelves in CLR for about 10 minutes, and sprayed with silver hammertone paint.   They look better than I expected but I'm no expert.  Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'm not familiar with "IrFanView" but would think you could resize down to 72 dpi, dimensions smaller than 800 pixels X 800 pixels and save in JPG format with a fairly low quality, maybe 3 on a 1 - 10 scale or 30 on a 1 - 100

And Welcome to SMC ! ! !
