THIS HAD BEEN ADDED BY THE OWNER:I have a copyright date off of the machine for 1956 but I'm not sure of theactual date of the machine, but it's definitely late 50's. The originalowner, of course, was Coca Cola and thismachine was in operation in a drug store in Boynton Bch, Florida where Ifound it. The machine was never repainted which explains the occasional"character scratches" and is original, including it's original ALL METALcoin mechanism which vends at .10, .15 or .25cents. There are no dents inthis vendor and is in great shape. I did replace some of the wiring dueto the fact that it was brittle and was potentially a hazard. I can onlyguess at the weight (probably 300 to 400lbs) and I will personally deliverthis machine if it's in the greater CT area for a nominal charge. As faras odor, when you open the machine there is that antique smell to themachine, but when the door is closed there is no odor.Pending sale of the machine, I will have an official Coca cola servicetechnician do a P.M. on the machine (since I do work for the company) andhave the compressor recharged and make sure it is running at 100%.*********** I will be returning on Sunday evening and will contact the winner when I return **************  Place a Bid!
