 Should be no sting at 1500 , thats fair market value for a barn find 81.. although some don't think you can find them for that still... but you can.. so congrats.. I'm picking one this weekend that I bought for 1500 as well,  I found on my local newspaper ad.  will post photos on Sunday..   |

        Very nice original machine. You will be so much further ahead restoring this one rather than the VMC 27 you have. Time and cost are close to the same but this one vends multiple flavors and sizes of bottles, which is was what Creighton was explaining in one of your earlier posts.I'm guessing you'll paint this the color of your Cobra? And you said the key was missing, how did you get it open?
 Anyway, that's a real nice find Bill. Did anyone tell you this hobby was addicting?

 The guy found the key fortunately.  Very addicting, I'm curious what the next "Most Wanted" machine is next to the 81D? |

 Ha-ha!! You've only just begun! All of the 81D models: VMC 81's (generic, 7 UP, Pepsi, RC Cola) and any other fantasy 81's (Orange Crush, Barq's, etc.) |

 Actually the most desireable model out there is the rare and hard to find Cornelious 50.  Fortunately I have access to one of these machines and would be willing to trade you straight up for your 81 D   |

 I'm going to look at a Vendo 81 D this Sunday they are asking 1500 firm.  Missing the coin mech.  Pics to follow. I have a large door out of a 110.  My luck is it will be a small door mech. that I would need to make it complete!!   |

 Well then you have the common version.  Its the double "o" that makes it so valuable.     |

 Not necessarily true Glen!Five basic LD mechs:
 Westinghouse
 Jacobs
 Sure-Vend
 VMC
 Vendo
 Main difference is the shaft length/pinhole, but there are a couple subtle differences between some models aside from change-giver & non-change-givers.

 Not to hyjack this thread but I talked to Tom earlier today since this 81 is converted to electric coin mech . there could be some type of alterations to the vending stack also?? I will need to get more pictures to from the seller to determine if the vending stack will work to switch it back to a fuctional mechanical mech. machine, etc. Thought suggestions.. Great buy on the machine and nice looking Cobra on the back!!   |

 You got a good deal on that machine.  They are out there.  Just have to look harder for them.  The problem now is that everyone thinks the stuff is gold from watching TV.  
 Square tops have been popping up around here with insane asking prices.
