click "attach" button below the reply text area, locate & double-click on your photo, make sure your picture is in one of the acceptable formats..(IE..jpg, gif, etc. ) and also make sure your picture isn't bigger than the allowed size of 100kb per post Title: Re: Square top VFC 56 sign needed Post by: dougcorn on November 07, 2011, 06:05:49 pm The machine is exactly like the Vmc vf56 pepsi machine from your older post...with the yellow sign and blue lettering
Title: Re: Square top VFC 56 sign needed Post by: johnieG on November 07, 2011, 07:01:04 pm this one? If so, it's a hard sign to find, but not impossible, I have the same machine...these signs tend to crack easily, often due to aging related crazing* in the plastic.
* crazing..multiple small shallow cracks in the plastic, it sometimes looks like alligator skin or cracked-ice over the surface of the sign & it often is due to heat from the light-bulb & sunlight reacting with the acrylic plastic of the sign, & sometimes from some types of solvents like acetone or mineral-spirits especially when the sign has deeply pressed embossed edges like this design does.

Title: Re: Square top VFC 56 sign needed Post by: Pat Pixley on November 07, 2011, 08:21:22 pm Well I was thinking And did some looking around , and found this.
I don't know if your feeling creative or not , but a little cutting and some yellow paint and like new Title: Re: Square top VFC 56 sign needed Post by: johnieG on November 07, 2011, 08:29:22 pm any other options or signs that may work? other than getting a sign shop to make you a flat version, ( they are 3D if you didn't know already) these signs are unique to the two years they produced this color scheme for Pepsi I'm afraid.
