Title: Pepsi Machine

Is this a VMC 88 transitional?  A guy 15 minutes from my job is offering to sell it to me.  I can tell the coin mech is missing so I can only assume it is missing a lot of parts.  Does it have any value?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Looks like a Sure- Vend P-195? 

81" high
42" wide

The pepsi sign would be worth a bit if it is in good condition, I was offered $200 off choice vend 68 by a restorer and I wouldn't sell it just to have to go find another one.

        I see a crank handle which means there must be a coin mech holding it in place.
That already gives this monster a $300.00 parts value.
        I think you had better take it off his hands, strip it and send the whats left to recycle.

is there anything on this machine that is usable?

Along with the coin mech, that handle would be worth something.... and the door to someone eventually, but don't be in a hurry.

Do you have any more pics? inside?

Strip it down then move it. You're going to tear  it down anyway's might as well make the move as light as possible.
