Question
I have an antique coke box that is air cooled and is in working condition.  the box is in fairly good condition and has the mfg tag on it and the lid opens up on both sides to the middle.
there is a pannel on the front bottom left that is missing.  it is not coin operated.  can you tell me what i might be able to get for this if i was to sell it.

Answer
Hi Linda,

    I have to stay on coin operated games, that is what I am good at. Sorry for the delay in getting to you but I was trying in my limited time to find something out for you but came up with nothing. I know the box I think you have and I see them for sale for around $500.00, but I am not a coca-cola collector so I am not qualified in giving you a price value on these. You might try ebay and run a search, for up to date value on it. You might also write me back in a while as I need to get a book on these machine, I am getting tons of questions on Coke machines lately.
Thank You

Expertise

I am an expert on old coin operated machines, slot machines, trade stimulator's, jukeboxes, old arcade machines, etc. I have been identifying these for people who respond to my web site listed below, for a few years now. In almost all cases I am able to tell them about their old coin operated machines, the year, the value, and other general information about their machines. I do not know much about soda vending machines, coin banks, or scales, but I will try to help you with these if I can.

Experience

I bought my first slot machine, a .50 Cent Mills Black Cherry in 1969 and have been hooked from that time, I still have that Slot machine! Before that I found a open barrel full of old scraped jukebox wall boxes behind a restaurant, I wanted them all but never took a one of them. Anything that took a coin drove me nuts!
