He emailed me back and the words Braq's and Vendorlator or embossed, but the words Drink and "It's Good" are not.

      High bidder on the machine could ask that only the door be shipped to him,
since it could probably be hung on any other squaretop 56.

To be 'correct', I think the VMC cabinet should have louvres on the side and most Vendo's did not have these vents. Not that it couldn't be found, but not common.

We'll.
I have a way to get it from there to me, without a problem from a fellow member on this board.. thank you,
SO the big question is will a Vendo 81 bottle stack fit in this machine... he says it's 58" inches high which I would guess makes this a square top 81? not a 56?

I have extra mechanical bottle stacks, jsut needs some shelves and walla.. a nice "Free vend" machine?

this will be fun to watch.

        The door liner does not appear to have been ever removed for welding and
the lower inside of the door looks original dark blue.

John,
If you get it - it needs total restoration anyway - why not turn it into an early transitional machine with mechanical stack and crank handle mech and all.

Looking at the 'Barq's' embossing pic -
In between the B and Q under the 'ar', it looks like "Trade Mark Reg." is embossed also.
