Title: vmc 81 Post by: pepsibob on October 11, 2014, 02:18:21 pm Hi just wanted to know what all soda brands that were embossed for the vmc 81
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: Slapshot42 on October 11, 2014, 02:20:14 pm Pepsi 81 7up 81 RC 81 Dr. Pepper 81 just had a sign over it... Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: Smallblock on October 11, 2014, 03:49:42 pm Did Vmc make non embossed v81's for other soda brands ?
I have only see a white and red non embossed version of a RC 81. And of course the Dr pepper version that Slapshot42 said. It would nice to see a picture of a complete collection of all 4 vendo 81's and all Vmc 81's Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: BONOVOX on October 11, 2014, 03:53:54 pm They did make a generic 81 Canada Dry....I have that pic somewhere just gotta find it.
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: MoonDawg on October 11, 2014, 07:21:39 pm Generic 81's came in all flavors.........
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: pepsibob on October 12, 2014, 01:53:02 pm i was talking to a man this weekend said vmc made embossed orange crush vendors canada dry birlys etc all embossed and i seen the crush ..
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: mygoose101 on October 12, 2014, 03:01:14 pm As Jared stated, ONLY embossed VMC's were Pepsi, 7-up and Royal Crown. Anything else that you see embossed is a fantasy machine. They either cut out the original embossing or most likely used a generic (non-embossed) 81 and welded a logo probably from a cooler on the machine. Including the Orange Crush.
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: Eric on October 12, 2014, 03:30:48 pm They did emboss the early 81 square tops with Barq's
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: mygoose101 on October 12, 2014, 03:38:52 pm Yes, I believe BONOVOX has one.
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: pepsibob on October 12, 2014, 04:10:59 pm yes but this round top crush and barqs
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: mygoose101 on October 12, 2014, 04:23:48 pm There are NO factory embossed VMC round corner Orange Crush or Barqs. If you have seen one they are not real, they are a fantasy machine.
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: BONOVOX on October 12, 2014, 05:47:57 pm Yes, I do still have my Barqs embossed ST 81.... I actually had it for sale for a while, but have since tucked it away in the garage.....
I think I might just keep the door only, restore it, and hang the door on a wall as art. I would call it "Bart's" (I know, keep my day job).... but I really do have thoughts of doing that.

Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: mygoose101 on October 12, 2014, 06:23:05 pm What! Unbielivible, they really do make a embossed Orange Crush. Lol. :tounge:
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: BONOVOX on October 12, 2014, 06:54:36 pm I can turn milk into cheese... that doesn't make me the second coming of Christ :laugh:
Title: Re: vmc 81 Post by: Eric on October 12, 2014, 06:55:50 pm Some really nice, hard to find, coolers gave their all for those fantasy machines :down:

That is why there are so many postings about making sure they are real by pulling back the liner and checking both sides of the embossing on the 7up and RC Cola. |
