For sale is my Vendo 81 D Coke machine. I only sell a machine to make room for a different one coming in. Bought my first Coke Machine 25 years ago.
In those years I have both restored and collected machines. The Vendo 81 is regarded as the most collectible Coke machine ever made. It is not the rarest nor the most expensive but it is the one everyone wants. This particular one is an excellent example of an unmolested original. It's not a perfect original but it's very very nice and can be displayed indoors as I have so.
Original unrestored machines are becoming very hard to find. Up until a few years ago these machines were all being restored, then the word "patina" became popular. This isn't a patina machine, this is a nice original machine. Machine is 100% complete and is fully tested. I'm not afraid to plug these machines in because they are made to be used.This machine works excellent and gets ice cold. It also has a fluorescent light inside the bottle door. I put that on a separate switch so you can have the light on without having the machine running. That's typically the way I display all my machines.
I have included several pictures of the machine with photos taken outdoors in bright sunlight so you can truly appreciate the beauty of this machine. I have also included a picture where machine is displayed in my living room for reference.
