I was wondering if anyone has.

Like a VMC-81 transitional Pepsi or 7up machine that is embossed.  Just thinking aloud again  biggrin

I'd believe there may be few, but keep in mind that the transitional style was the move away from embossed/dedicated flavor/brand machines of the 50's to the more modern illuminated marquee type machines that could be made for any brand of soda/beverage.

Think someone had a 7-Up as well. Other than Barqs, 7-Up no.

I've only seen the Barq's and 7UP as well. Brian (Seven181) had the 7UP - believe he got it out of Palm Springs.
