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?

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 tounge

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!! darn

A Cornelious 50? Dang!  darn That must be rare! I have a "Cornelius" 50.  No second "o" in the name. I checked the tag.   tounge

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