All,
Halehouse (Dan) was nice enough to alert me to this. I was in contact earlier with the owner before he sent this machine to auction. The auction was in my home town, but I didn't get to go. So, some one bought it and now it's up for sale. I am going to make a run on it. Too bad it's not another VMC 81 7-Up!

I made an offer to the owner and he declined. He preferred I bid for it instead. No big deal. He was a nice guy and hopefully this one will be mine for decent price.

Thanks guys. This one is a keeper. I don't have a bottle machine and could never afford a roundtop bottle machine, so this one is it. I really like that it's a 7-Up. This makes it a little unique. I will rewire it and replace the fans, but I probably won't repaint for a while.

$103 - holy cow that's a steal. I bet the seller wished he had taken your offer! Congrats. |

Thanks again to all. My wife helped a lot on this. We set a timer to coinincide with eBay time. I had my bid ready and only had to hit the "confirm bid" button when she said to. I got in with 8 seconds left. I am going to pick it up on Saturday and will post pictures. I am very excited.

Not that I want to break up a family outing, but.... there is an easier way to snipe. I'll PM you with the details. |

Are you picking it up this weekend before the snow "hits" ? People here go nuts over it. Haven't had any since early Dec. and there are runs on milk and bread.
Looking forward to hearing about the new machine.

I actually got it yesterday, as I was thinking the snow was going to mess things up. It's is good shape. Needs a good cleaning, especially the bottle mechanism. But, it'll make a nice little project. I'll post pictures soon.

7Up-date:
I tore down the machine over the weekend. It needs some minor work. It cools great. I plan on rewiring and replacing the fans. I have to tear down, clean and lube the bottle stack. I did this to my can stack, so at least I am not going in totally uncharted waters. The belt plate has the typical rust, so I am going to cut a new piece of metal and stick it in there. I will touch up some rust areas inside and clean everything. I don't plan on painting the exterior (at least not now), as I like the graphics, have no extra money (well, permission to use it anyway). Besides, the machine will stay in the garage. I am going to paint all the stuff in the interior. Here are some photos. These were taken at the previous owner's place, but it gives a good idea of the machines condition.

Looks like there's a lot of cool stuff out there in the garage! What's beside the 7up (nice machine by the way!) and is that a 39 to the other side?...
Nice score on the 7up that model was my first machine... Wish I still had it  '>

These photos were actually sent to me by Lloyd from Coinopwarehouse. He owned this machine (and the 39 beside it). This has a cool story. My neighbor was looking for a machine (eventually bought a nice one from Josh) and I saw this one on Lloyd's site. I contacted him about it and he wanted $375. I thought that was a little steep and Lloyd said he paid $300 for it and if he didn't sell it, it was going to auction. Well about a month later, this machine and the 39 were being auctioned in my home town. I was planning on going, but my parents were visiting that weekend. Oh well, so I thought. The machine was bought by a guy about 35 miles from me who stuck it on eBay. However, he didn't list it well and I got it for $103. When I picked it up, his partner said he lost money on it, as it cost the guy nearly $200 at the auction.

Kito,
You'd have a coronary if you saw the stuff Lloyd kept on the top of the machines in his warehouse. Rest assured, the top of the 7-Up is clear in my garage.
