Well after searching for quite a while, I finally found an Ideal 35/ O~So Grape slider. it's a generic machine, but according to the former owner, I was his Dads machine from the family service station & it's always been "O~So Grape" since day one. & it looks totally original, the machine is 90% compllete, as it's missing its slug-rejector button & the slug-rejector itself, ( it's a 10-cent machine)and it's missing the key for the coinbox & the lock & key for the service door, no biggy, other than the coinbox cover was beat-on with a hammer. it's straight, rust free (other than some light surface rust) & it runs! an yes, it has the bloody rack! (hard to find for a model 35) Ok..here's some pics'

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |
