Welcome to SMC Dave!! Great to have you around. The coin mech that will work fine with your 7up machine is the Coinco S75-9800A Series. These can be found on Ebay and vary in price from as low as $10 all the way to around $75 on the high end.

Dave, good to have you here as a new member of the family. You're gonna love it here.
You are in luck, the "Coinco S75-9800A" coin mech is the most common and easily found model out there. It will be very easy for you to pick one up for around $35 plus shipping.
Can we see pics of your machine?

Thanks for your response. I could not find a coinco S75-9800A. However there are plenty of S75-9800A on line. Is this model the same and will it work. Thanks for your time. Dave

Yep, the A & B are interchangable.
They both work the same.

Just make sure that it is a 117 volt not 24 volt. Do you have any pictures of your machine. I have never seen one of the big ones with an old style coin door.

I don't know the reference and a google search does not return anything close to PG-rated results. Clarification?

Creighton,
I'll try to tie this into soda machines and keep it PG. During 2000-2002, I rented a house in Balston, Arlington, VA with several grad school degenerates. To make matters worse, I started stocking the 81D I had only with beers. One of my roommates set-up a "Beirut table" in the same room. A Beirut table is essentially a ping-pong table filled with 10 glasses of beer in the form of a triangle on each side. You have teams and throw a ping pong ball into the opponents' glasses. Once one side loses all their glasses, they need to also drink the winners' remaining glasses. Hence, the name Beirut...you can get bombed easily.
Anyway, the clean-up crew roommates and I (minus one guy whose door was still closed for some reason in the morning) found a pair of rather large bloomers and strung them around the 81D and one guy would chant "Gennifer's....." and another person would chime in "panties...." That's how retarded we were. The only smart thing was to go to Cracker Barrel an hour south on 66 and nurse that hangover. Can't get Da Cracker here in California...can't even get Waffle House.....

AC,
What fun!! Suspect the game would be "Baghdad table" these days. Understand about no 'Da Cracker out here, mom and dad send me my fixes from same. Let me know what you would like and it's on the way. Hope no hard feelings. The google search on the phrase was a bit shocking to even this old hippy :-)
Best!

What a great story! Reminds me of my college days, except no V-81.
I've never heard of the "Beirut" table game, but I like it. Though I thought I'd played almost all the others (i.e. "Sink the Ship", "Hi Bob", "Bed Boat", etc.) I even got a quarter lodged in my throat while teaching "Quarters" to a roomful of Brits when I attended Uni in England. It blocked my breathing and I nearly died. Ah... good times.
Thanks for the fun story. That Ginnifer must have been a big girl. Bet she had a "roundtop" too.

Not too many rowdy college/grad. school days for me....Just sailing the seven seas and engaging in "Goodwill Embassador" operations in foreign countries courtesy of the US Navy
One of my personal favorites was played like this (pretty simple, I know) A shot of beer every minute for an hour. Most people kinda shrug their shoulders and say "that sounds easy!" Hehehe......38 minutes later when counting and maintaining time becomes a problem it isn't so easy any more!
Let's see.....Yeah, we played quarters too...And a bunch of other extra-curricular drinking activities. Good memories...at least I think so, most of my memories are reconstructions or ones that were "given" to me like, "Hey, did I have a good time last night???"
I'm thirsty now......For water!!!

Brian - our version of the shot a minute was called the Century Club. I ounce every minute for 100 minutes. Drinking was hard enough... even harder was that you weren't allowed to leave your seat... Eyes were floating by the hour mark.
Another game we used to play was while watching the original Star Trek, you had throw a shot back every time Bones said "I'm just a Dr...", Scotty said "she's breakin up", Spock said "logical" and then 5 shots every time Kirk kissed an alien or had his shirt ripped. The shows were in syndication and ran back to back... By the end of the second show, we were worse off than the century club.:p

Bryan, that's a lot like "Hi Bob" while watching the Bob Newhart Show.

Hey
Nothing like having a party & the machines are set to free vend. It makes for a good time but watch out if you stock with the high powered beer (Ice House etc) people start doing funny things. Its even better when the women start doing funng things!!
Speaking of funny drinking games. Anyone ever try doing carrier landings? I am not sure why a bunch of army officers tried it but image this. First you line up two long banquet tables end to end, then apply a liberal coating of the drink of choice to soak down the carrier landing surface, then the pilots take a running start and complete the carrier landing by landing & sliding on the tables. It is great fun until the landing strip crashes to the floor in the O club. Of course all the pilots went scrambling for cover.
