Title: VMC 81 Pepsi - FOR SALE! Post by: BrianB on May 21, 2013, 06:50:45 pm After 3 years of sitting around in my garage, I have come to the realization that I am not going to get around to completing the restoration on my VMC 81 Pepsi machine.
The machine is complete with the exception of a few small items but all of the heavy hitters/expensive items are present, like: - Solid body with straight louvers (As always, the middle shelf between the compressor compartment and the main compartment needsto be replaced) - Solid/straight Main Door with perfect embossing - Large Coin Door - Change giver Coin Mechanism (missing the chrome handle, available from multiple sources) - Correct VMC Coin Bezel. It's been re-chromed and foil cal applied! - Refrigeration deck has been restored & tested. It had a new compressor installed and only needs the wiring harness hooked-up - Complete Vending Mechanism stack. It's been disassembled and all parts re-plated. Face plate needs to be painted and the front stack assembly (stainless steel) needs to be polished - Full set of bottle shelves (need new springs) Sliders have already been powder coated. - The body & main door were sandblasted but could stand a light blasting again. Please take a look at the pictures. For those of you who know these machines, you know what it's worth alone in parts. I have already completed a lot of the hard work. Basically, buy a few small parts here and there, get the body painted and throw it together and you will have an awesome machine! I'm asking $2400. PM me if you are interested or have any questions.

Title: Re: VMC 81 Pepsi - FOR SALE! Post by: BrianB on May 22, 2013, 09:34:00 am I informed the buyer that I would only sell it to a good home that would lovingly restore it in ALL BLUE!!! :laugh:
Just kidding! But, I prefer the all blue and that was my original plan for it before life jumped to the head of the line, the nerve!!! :biggrin: Title: Re: VMC 81 Pepsi - FOR SALE! Post by: mygoose101 on May 22, 2013, 07:00:34 pm Damn life. It always gets in the way of our soda machines. :biggrin:
