I am starting the process of restoring a Stoner 180. I need some tips on disassembly. For example I need to know how to remove the frame which has the rows of candy which are vended. I contacted a person who has a Stoner parts maual but was told it would not have the kind of information I need. Is there anyone I can turn to for some tips?

PLEASE HELP ASAP! Can someone please tell me the value of an original condition u-select Coan machine, round top? It is being offered to me for $450 however am told it isn’t currently not working due to “possibly” lack of oil. When I go see it, how can I confirm this? OR inspect what the source of it not working is? OR what year it is? Do I need to care about serial #’s?, etc.Any pointers? At worst what is a potential estimate to fix one? I would appreciate any help as it is a big investment for me! Thank you so much!

I have tried all the vintage appliance restoration companys and none of them have ever seen one like it. I found it in North Eastern Oklahoma…I can send pics if you think you can ID it. I would like to restore it but I dont want to get in a situation where no parts are available……please help.

We are looking for information regarding a David Bradley cooler (Serial number 40311) with a Tucumseh Refrigeration Compressor (Serial number 6F029606) . The Cooler is Green in color and was maybe used for milk or cream cans and is used by filling with water to keep item cold. We believe this cooler is from the 1950’s or early 60’s. If anyone has helpful information it would greatly be appreciated. Please e-mail at mjohn66@q.com or call Steve at 218-348-3591. Thank you.

My dad has a set of 15 Lusse Auto Scooters that were made in England in the early 1950’s under
licence of Lusse America. The parts were made pre War as in 1939. All production stopped for the War and parts were stored. After the War with Italian Competition Lusse was forced to change to Fiberglass Bodies to compete. All
trims etc were sent to England. All drives rear axle and iron wheels were the same and interchangeable with the 1939 cars.
The difference with my cars are that the housings of the motors are cast iron and not aluminium as the U.S.A cars are. The motors are made in England and are 100vDC not A.C as in the U.S.A. So these cars are quite rare.
If anyone wants to buy them, please let me know.
Thank you.

Thought I should’ve included my eamil with the “Magic Kitchen” request for info. My email: sdaro@twmi.rr.com Thanks!

By: Steve

Steve — Sun, 10 Oct 2010 14:03:53 +0000

I bought a few of these at local sale and was hoping I could get some indepth info on these.
I believe this to be a 1940’s or 1950’s vintage “Magic Kitchen” Model #50 Can Food Warmer and Dispensing Non-coin Vendor Machine. They are new old stock in excellent condition with the original shipping box and comes with plastic (bakelite type) knob feet that you screw onto the bottom. There is no build date markings. The person I got it from (who’s in their 50’s) said their grandfather was in business selling these to area businesses. I am placing the manufacture date in the 1940’s to mid 1950’s (but could be as early as the 30’s) due to several points. First, the person who had them is in their 50’s and it was their grandfather who was in business. Second, the internal wiring is cloth wrap insulated (no plastic coating). And third, the original shipping label is a simple label with NO zip code (when was shipping done without a zip code?). Half of the top opens for loading the can food but the whole top can be removed. The cans dispense out of the stainless steel door about half way up the front. It came with a simple typewritten copied instruction sheet. It measures 24 inches side to side, 25 inches high and 12 inches deep. The original box is just slightly larger. I would like to submit pictures along with this comment but don’t have a server where I can store them and but a link in here to go to them. Happy to email the pic’s to anyone who might be able to help. I would greatly appreciate any info especially an idea of the value of these. Thanks!

I’m in the process of restoring a 1948 pepsi double dot ideal slider machine. I ran into a small problem. The inner tub is galvanized and the corners have been leaded. The galvanizer here in town does not want to regalvanize because of the lead in the seams. I guess the only option is to paint the inner tub. Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to restore the inner tube and sheet metal. thanks Scott

Matt,

I don’t think they are junk, I just think people did not keep them around after they served their purpose, got too old, etc. So I think that they are rare. I have found a link for you to check out: http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/tusko-elephant-rare-leather-saddle-kiddie-ride
Good luck with your project, it would be nice to see some pictures when you’re done.

recently i acquired 2 old childrens quarter rides, they are not in the best of shape, but at the same time look like a fun project for myself. I was curious if either of the following rides would be worth looking into restoring or not. one is a baby tusko, the only real info i could find on this were some ads in google books that have been scanned, here is an example. http://books.google.com/books?id=RQoEAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA96&dq=baby+tusco&hl=en&ei=i_0oTMeDGsH9nQf4hZ2pAQ&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CC0Q6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=baby%20tusco&f=false the other is called red rocket, it is what it sounds like a red fiberglass rocket that moves like the tusco. I can not find anyone in my area that can give me any information on these and any help in getting me started on whether i should make them a couple projects so some vending history isn’t lost, or if they were just such junk that the history was never there to begin with.

thanks for any help

Hi, I’m interested in using this image ( http://www.vintagevending.com/gertner-soda-vending-machine) for a small piece on the U. of Chicago Law School website (http://www.law.uchicago.edu/). Would that be possible?

Missy,

I believe you have a National 222 cigarette machine. Here is a link to a later model for sale: http://www.vendingmachinesworldwide.com/national-222-cigarette-vending-machine-refurbished.aspx I’m not sure what year your machine is from, since National Vendors has been around so long. (http://www.nationalvendors.com/AboutUs/history.cfm) We might be able to help you out more if you send a picture to questions@vintagevending.com

Fred,

We no longer have this machine, so we don’t know where to get the gum you need. Perhaps you can try contacting a gum/candy manufacturer and see if they can help you out?

I see that your Stoner Fresh Gum 1cent machine may have the same size gum as my machine.
I have a 1945 1 cent Select O Vend machine that takes a stick of gum that is 1 3/8″w x 13/16″d x 5/32″thick.
It looks like the same as your stoner gum machine.
Do you know where I might find this size gum to purchase for my machine?

Thank You in advance

Regards
Fred
