Yep it is a transitional 7up 81. It is when they were changing from round tops to square. They not worth near what the round tops are but they will be the next in line to be valuable. I have a transitional 56 stored away for when that happens.What do you want to know about it?

Thanks for the info!  What years were these made?  Where is the best place for parts (door liners, seals ect).  What are they worth now?  Not that I would ever sell it....we used this machine at our motel when I was a kid....I stole many Big Reds out of this machine drinking

Thanks

I used a pocket knife and picked the lock...the lock sucked.  I didnt REALLY steal them...My grandmother would give us 25 cents for a soda, but it was more fun getting it ourselves!!!

So you were an opportunist - scamming at both ends!
Just kidding again!

I have a machine that I have had since I was 10-12 years old and would not trade/sell it for the world!!!
