Just received this today...7up Vendorlator 149...Rare Embossed

[Seven181]

Hey gang, wanted to show you this. For years I tried to find this machine for my 7up collection and never could. I saw pics and was told that they were out there, but could not find one. Then, about a month ago a tip came in from a member on here about this machine. I bought this from a guy out in CA. He did not know anything about it. I got a great deal, $275 for it. I had is shipped with NAVAL. I think it looks great for an original. No crank handle, like the Coke 149, but still a nice embossed machine. I no longer have my 7up machines, just some Quikold's. This will be the first 7up machine I have had in about 6 months, besides my cup machines.

Hey Brian, looks sweet!!  Glad you could get that one!  Always nice to have a nearly one-of-a-kind machine.

Good for you! very cool looking machine!

The more 7 up machines I see the cooler they look. The same with the Dr. Pepper (which tastes like poo IMHO)machines.

I'd love to see pics after you unwrap that bad boy too.

Get to Michigan next Tues!!!! I will get the machine unwrapped tomorrow and take better pics. I think it is very cool!

        6 months ago we were worried Brian was leaving this hobby, now he has become our
biggest contributor, and finds even more amazing stuff than ever before. Great job Buddy, so glad to have you on board

Thanks my friend!!! I did sell off most of my 7up machines and then this 149 came along! Do I start the hunt again for the 7up machines?? I would say that I will just stay hunting cup machines, but I wanted this 149 for so long and looked everywhere for one! When I finally found one, had to get it.

I enjoy the friends I have on this board and the great knowledge everyone has!

Cool find Brian, Good for you... We'll we all say the hunt is what it's all about... so maybe you'll have to start up that 7up Collection from scratch again! ha ha..but the hunt would be fun...
Good to see your still finding stuff.. Dried up a bit up around me lateley... thought SUmmer would bring out some deals? not yet though...

[Seven181]

Theres a lot of stuff still out there, it is just finding it and having the money to buy it!!!
