The Pepsi bottles of this era were always those bigger 12 ounce bottles, so the rack would have to accommodate that size bottles. I've never owned one or seen one, so I don't know this for sure. I just know from my many years of bottle collecting that I never found a 6 ounce Pepsi bottle.
I saw on a TV show it was because Pepsi bought a ton of old 12oz beer bottles for a fraction of the price they would have paid to make their own bottles. It allowed them to sell a 12oz bottle for the same price as or just slightly more than the 6.5 oz Cokes. Helped them gain marketshare. |

My SV P47 only vends the smaller 6-oz. bottles, the rack isn't adjustable

Spoon-feeding Newbies since 2001...  Yeah..220,221 whatever it takes. Remember, all it needs is a shot of Freon! The Vendo V-83 is the '59 Edsel of the coke machine world. ;p Spray painting does NOT restore a compressor 11 is louder than 10... "Hope" is good, but it's not an action plan. |

Hey Tom,
I realize you have several coin mech changers, but do you have an original one for small door 81a/b that hasn't been modified to fit...? I'm going to dig mine out and see what I have and then I'll contact you... I might be interested in trading in plus some cash to acquire one of your restored ones, if you have one and secondly, would you possibly part with one...

I stand corrected! Just haven't seen any of those smaller Pepsi bottles, so really wasn't sure what the P-47 would vend if not adjustable/different from the Dr. Pepper/7up Selectivends. Thanks for the update!  |

This machine is still available and I can get this machine for $150. Is it worth it? That seems pretty cheap. I was incorrect about the location. It is just north of Dayton Ohio.

I would buy it for that price, if it were in my neck of the woods. The only thing is, once it is bought you may be stuck with it for a long time, as these machines aren't really in demand and the market doesn't seem to be showing any signs of relief anytime soon.
good luck

The Pepsi bottles I have are 6 1/2 oz. bottles that came with my Pepsi VMC 33. I have seen them in the Selectivend Pepsi machines also. I have the embossed 7up and the Pepsi one with the round sign on top. I don't think I have seen one from the factory with that sign on it.
