Title: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: JerryG on February 11, 2016, 02:40:26 pm Hello everyone. I finished my Pepsi 81 last night and wanted to share some pictures. As you can see, Tom did another excellent job with the coin mechanism.
Take care, Jerry Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: JerryG on February 11, 2016, 02:41:10 pm Additional photos

Jerry Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: mygoose101 on February 11, 2016, 04:49:14 pm I'll call that a perfect machine. Perfect color, all one color, not 2 tone. The right graphics with just the square decal on the side. Love it!

Creighton Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: ajf5577 on February 12, 2016, 07:14:56 am Thanks for all of the pics. Always great to see a project from start to finish.
Very nice CC neon as well. Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: JerryG on February 12, 2016, 09:52:19 am Thanks to everyone for the comments. I would like to pass on what I did with the insulation and sound deadening. It is probably amateur night for most of the veterans on the site, but here it goes anyway. I put sound deadening on the back end of the tub where the evaporator sits. I also put a layer of double reflective insulation on the back end of the tub and door liner. I am sure it is over kill but I have to tell you after it cools down the condenser only comes on once an hour to hour and twenty minutes. Drinks stay at approx 31-32 degrees. The machine is so quite, you almost have to open the bottle door to make sure it is on.
Jerry Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: brasskey on February 12, 2016, 11:33:26 am Again, great work. Didn't ever think about sound deadening. Nice job.
Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: Slider-Bob on February 12, 2016, 12:03:15 pm Again, great work. Didn't ever think about sound deadening. Nice job. Where can you buy that sound deadening stuff? I need some for my wife! LOL JK :laugh: Machine looks really nice! Great job! Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: Jared on February 12, 2016, 12:56:44 pm Did you build the coke neon, looks great
Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: SodaShopNick on February 12, 2016, 02:07:35 pm Great info on the sound deadening addition. Never would have thought of that, but might be asking you more questions on the next machine I work on.
Title: Re: Pepsi VMC 81 Finally Finished Post by: JerryG on February 12, 2016, 03:12:48 pm Thanks. Yes I did. I purchased the sled sign and had a local neon company build the can and bend the neon. It is the standard 18x43" sled.
Thanks Jerry |
