Hey folks, I'm Tracy. I am a Maintenance Mechanic for Coca Cola Enterprises in West Memphis, Ak. I have worked on various antiques for years such as record players, cash registers, coin op scales, pinball machines, ect and have recently had the cooler bug to bite me hard. I am currently working on a CS 64 E that I have taking up most of the floor space in my garage (to my wifes dismay) and last weekend picked up locally a V39. Here are some Pics!

Hey Joey, Sorry to have knocked you out of it, but I sure was glad to get it. The compressor needs to be replaced on it, as it will only cool to around 55 degrees and will not pull down a vacuum very well. I suppose after 56 years, I would not pull very much of a vacuum either  . Have you ever replaced just the compressor? I would like to keep the original evaporator in the box if possible, but am not married to the condenser. Otherwise the machine is in pretty good shape. It has some surface rust on the front around the ICE COLD logo, but nothing a good body shop could not fix in short order. I paid 500 for it and hope that I can make something of it. The V39 has been a dream of mine for a while! Thanks, Tracy P.S.Heres a pic of the inside |

Hey Tracy,
I am over in Memphis. I have a couple of machines and some gas and oil collectibles.
Is that the 39 that was on craigslist a week or so back?
There is a wealth of knowledge here so don't be afraid to ask.

Yes you can replace just the compressor and keep the evaporator,  Dont feel bad for "knocking me out of the punch" I seen it there for a week and waited to email just curious to see if it was still available. I was gonna offer $400.00 for it. Joey |
