1950s Pepsi VMC 81 Embossed Soda Machine

This machine is very straight and a perfect candidate for a restoration. I bought it and was planning to restore it but I am going a different route now. Since I have owned it, I haven't plugged it in as you can see someone messed with the compressor.

If you'd like to see anymore pictures or have questions, feel free to reach out.

$3400 OBO

 biggrin I'm not knocking' it, but I really like that water valve spliced into the suction line coming from the evaporator, and with compression fittings no less.... ( I guess they figured since it's a compressor this was the required fitting?)

Yeah, that compressor's gonna need a little fixin'   too funny... tounge

Please, Don't plug it in... wow  that custom wiring & splice box/condensate tray,, plus it has a handy-dandy light switch, this wiring may look scary.


But you decide... oh

Yeah, It’s not Craigslist, we’ll actually let you know why we yanked your listing, then we beat you over your head with it... ( just kidding)   laugh

Glad it found a new home...  drinking
