Just got back from my road trip at 4AM. I bought 2 milk machines and 2 American Vendors and that was all the room i had. This guy has a trailor full of machines and one with sign. I didn't get to see the one with the signs. Lots of machines in the shop also. He had the policeman sign repoped and has about 50 left out of 1000. You have to find your own base. I'll post a few pictures. Had a great time but it was a long drive. I think it was worth it.

Kevin,

GREAT JOB! Nice finds! How is he on prices? I would have interest in that Pepsi 56 or any soda cup machines. Do you know if he has any? Looks like he might have some good stuff??

His prices are real good on certain stuff and not so good on other stuff. He wants $6000 for the Pepsi light up. I could buy one restored for that price. He doesn't really want to sell it. He never owned a cup vendor but he's owned about everything else. He wants $8000 for the RC 81 door and you get the Coke 81 machine with it. The policeman stand up signs are $400 each without stand. I got the 4 machines for $1650.

The policeman is double sided but he didn't have a license so the back is blank. You could have some decals made for the back.
