Ops, I stand corrected, that is not the machine. The selection buttons are oval and have the item selection all in the same button.
I'm trying to post a picture also, but it keeps telling me file size to big

I like the round buttons and the styling of that machine face.

Its my first machine, I figured $80 wasn't to bad. Would love to flip it and sell it and work my way up to a nicer machine. Seems like paperwork is hard to find for the old girl

I would say it is a "VF-165". The FA probably denotes a variation of the cosmetics and some minor updates from the original VF-165. Still a 165 can push-button vendor from VMC. It is a neat looking beastie. Does it have a can-opener? If not, that may be one of the main differences between the original VF-165. Yours may post-date the invention of the 'pop top'. Jim |

No can opener, just the pull tab slot. How would I date the machine?

Google search the slogan or look at the different logo changes over the years. I'd say late 70s ...

I was told that that there was a way to tell the year by the ser#. True.
Ser# 02-78-22
Mod# 08-56-007
Anyone ? Would their still be a service manual around?
