Nice machines. VMC 33's? Nice size too...under 5 feet tall. Do they both work? Are you selling them? The only drawback is the Coca-Cola logo on front is decaled instead of embossed. Where do you live wolf?
Thinking about it Ray. Talk to me
Ray, not big on machines. 33's is what I came up with as well. Live in Washington. Very much thinking about it.
Very much thinking about what, selling them. Do you own both of them? I know someone in the Florida Keys who might be interested in one...if the price is right.
Whats the right price
For me? $1000...or less.
No. Too low, they were my grandfathers.
...and your grandfather acquired them for free I'm sure. So you don't have any money invested in them. So any money you get is 100% profit. $1200...and that's the best I can do. But you need to email me more photos. raykilinski@cfl.rr.com
Ray, I think I am going to keep them. Thanks though.
I seen you commented that you like the 1930s westinghouse cooler, i have the top doors to that cooler with no rust and paint is still in good condition and all original but no cooler just curious if you knew how much the doors them self would be worth and if you or you knew anyone interested in purchasing the cooler door.
Don't know the value, or anybody interested in them. What I would do is contact someone who restores a lot of coke items. The only person I can think of right now is Rick's Restoration in Vegas. He is easy to find on the net. Hope this helps, wish you the best, Lonewolf.
Andrew, as fate would have it, might have found you a source to move those lids. reach me at pappabear135@comcast.net
Had one just like it, but did not keep it. Purchased it for 50 bucks around 30 years ago, sold it 20 years ago for about $250... dumb me, kind of regret selling it... Oh well made money.
