Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?) Barqs' Post by: Pixel on September 16, 2013, 12:51:31 pm Looks VERY heavy. Is it a VMC? I would have thought it could hold way more than 64 bottles.

Half the shelves are missing........... it now only holds 64 bottles. :biggrin: Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?)

"64 bottle"....egh, marketing. :down: Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?) Barqs' Post by: Pope on September 16, 2013, 04:55:11 pm Looks like it could be use to play Plinko on the Price Is Right, so many holes! :oh:
Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?) Barqs' Post by: johnieG on September 16, 2013, 05:27:36 pm Sorry, doesn't look embossed to me, I own a V56 of this model line & they either had light-up signs or painted steel signs, never embossed panels ( where the sign went on the front) :oops:
Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?) Barqs' Post by: BONOVOX on September 16, 2013, 05:46:57 pm I dunno Johnie.... the BARQS in some areas (like the apostophy. or the swirl in the B looks 3 dimensional, where as the decals on the top and bottom have no dimension to it. Not saying that it is, as I've never seen one in person, but the pictures tend to make me think it is.
:happydrinkers: Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?) Barqs' Post by: johnieG on September 16, 2013, 06:03:26 pm Maybe...But I've own many different sizes of this model & I've never seen an embossed panel, guess you'd have to contact the owner to confirm or deny... ( It's an unpopular model regardless, quite the Monster of a machine, incomplete & in poor shape too...Oh I just saw a Nice 7up VMC VF110 in Michigan, thats clean...

I though his was a true VMC VF81 transitional, not a VMC VF110 like this one Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?) Barqs' Post by: zadd on September 17, 2013, 04:55:24 pm Yep ... It was :blush:
Title: Re: Here is another embossed (?) Barqs' Post by: SIGNGUY on September 19, 2013, 08:33:59 am here is the Barqs 81 I had.. sold it at Chicago to none other than Jack Redbeck (SP?).. I'm sure it's chopped up by now and living life or at least part of it in a RT 81 body.
it was embossed but only the BARQS, the Drink and it's good where screened on . |
