Is there a popular message board or place to find information on pop machines?

I haven't found much searching.

Thanks!
 
But be forewarned.. The response rate is nowhere near as fast as it is here. I'm not saying that to be mean, we just get spoiled here at KLOV. :D

It depends on the age of the machine.. Soda-machines.com has an excellent forum and will get any kind of advice and encouragement on any machine from the 70's and older.. Its more of a collectors forum, and most of the pushbutton machines and bubble fronts haven't made it there yet.
 
There are a lot of machines for sale around So Cal. You can usually find a working Vendo 63, or Cavalier CSS-8-64G which are solid entry level vintage coke machines, for a few hundred in working condition.

Some examples:

The 2nd link is a good deal if it works.. Thats a Cavalier USS-8-64 model and will vend both cans and bottles.. I've got one in the garage and its awesome.

I looked it it. It was complete and working but it had been sitting outside for 11 years so it needed some repainting. It also had some paint spashed on the sides. I passed. There are a bunch of them for sale around here and for another $100 or so you can get one in really good condition.
