1958 VENDO 56 ROUND TOP COKE MACHINE - PROFESSIONALLY RESTORED. He didn't want to run it because then it would get dirty.
And he didn't want anyone playing with it because he. Wanted to keep it like new. I plugged it in for about an hour today and the cooler hums nicely and it is ice cold, the chrome and stainless is bright, the paint is very nice, there are a couple chips by the door.
The light in the door isn't working I don't know why. The Vendo-56 is a "Slant Shelf" machine which means it can vend drinks in 8 oz and/or 12 oz bottle sizes. Painted with the two tone paint scheme - DuPont Iceberg White on Top - Red Bottom and lettering. Another popular feature of the 56 is its small size and weight.
The Vendo 56 is a rare machine popular with collectors because of it's small size, perfect for a game room or mancave. There were 3 coin mechanisms available for the Vendo 56. The 1st can be set to 5c or 10c but takes only nickels. 2nd can be set to 5 or 10 cents and will take 2 nickels or a dime. This Coke Machine has the most desirable coin mechanism, it will take Nickels, Dimes, or Quarters and gives change. I don't want to sell it but we are downsizing and no longer have the room to keep it.
