My dad has a Coke machine just like that Pepsi machine cleverlyj. They are sweet but only fit the big coke bottles. No beer will fit
The height of the rollers can be adjusted to fit a bit wider bottle. The only bottle I have trouble getting through my bottle stack is a Fosters bottle. Otherwise, I can fit even the 16oz plastic soda bottles.

Get one of these, you can mount it on the wall.

Pop machine
I just got a 1970 Coke Vendo 125 and I love it. It keeps the beers and pop a nice 38 degrees and looks sweet. It was not an outdoor machine, it's pretty clean. I will post some pics as soon as I get the correct labels in. Would love to have an older Pespi or Coke but those are out of the price range. 150 for mine was well worth the deal.
It will stay in the garage, not even thinking of moving it in basement.
Mmmmmmm beer

I have a 6 head Coke fountain that I was going to put in my gameroom. I had to nix the plan for now.

get a square top 56 b
Easy to find and arround 50.00 to 150.00. The 56 vendo is a work horse. I have bought and sold about 5 machines and all still work. Also easy to find parts for. The square top is not as much as the round top but has the same parts inside. The one bad thing is you have to choose bottles or cans, but the machine will do anything you want with the right escalator inside it.

I have always wanted a pop machine (specifically a Coke machine) for my house (though with the basement full it would have to reside in the garage most likely). Someday I will fulfill my dream if I can find one on the cheap.

Nice looking machine. Don't see to many of that specific model around here. Mostly 63s.
I quit drinking soda, and it was the best thing I ever did. No pop machine for me, ever.
I'd love a beer machine though

It's still in storage but works all the way. Not sure what my plans are with it, it may just be a garage piece rather than in the game room. This is the exact model machine I remember from childhood....the price was too good to pass up, especially working.
A little late to the party here, but I say get the Red Bull machine. The bill validator alone is worth the price of admission if your games are rigged with working coin mechs. There's your bill changer, right there
The period Pepsi machine is nice, but really? Dime a dozen around here.

A year ago, I would have said get the Red Bull machine and buy this:
However, last Halloween at a party, the guy had that exact machine and two cases of Red Bull. Turns out drinking 13 Jager Bombs isn't a good idea. I still think I counted 13 but others tell me I had 15. Whatever, it was kind of a good thing because the last thing I want now is a Jager Bomb.
Keep the Pepsi machine.
BTW, there's a hardcore group of Coke drinkers who swear by Mexican Coke in the bottle. Why? Because in Mexico they still make it with cane sugar instead of the HFCS (high fructose corn syrup). If you search online, you'll see that in taste tests, Mexican Coke destroys US Coke. I've read you can get it at Costco.

I have had this Pepsi machine in my game room for a few years. It works perfect and was made in the 80's so it fits the time era of my machines.
I have been tempted to replace it with this Red Bull machine. Its smaller but wont fit the time period. What would you do?? Keep Pepsi or get Red Bull??
Pop...lol...you yankie. Everything here in the South is referred to as coke (yes, even pepsi). Funny, the different, terms from one region to the next.

also have these in the gameroom, along with an Irish Mist one that's not pictured. You can never have enough "supporting cast" in the gameroom. BTW, The SoCo & Lime is by far the most popular. The only downside to these is when you have parties, the cost to fill these gets pretty high, as when you have these "cool" machines, everybody wants to drink from them.

Ive got a keg-er-ator, but I'd love a vending machine w/ custom inserts w/ beers. Would be sweet!
