If original paint that is by far the best unrestored 7up 81 ive seen. Good Luck with the sale i'll be watching it.

Also you may want to edit the title and put Vendo in there, Chances are more people will see it.

Guys,

This is the prize in my collection! ALL Original and yes, this is the original paint. It has not been restored by anyone. I got it along time ago from an older guy who had it for years. My wife put the posting up off of what I told her, I will change to Vendo, not sure what I was thinking, saying VMC!!! I am posting a lot of machines for sale. Selling out!

Nice machine Brian!!  :jawdrop:
I'm sure your reserve is a pretty penny (it would be if I owned it) - wish I had a bunch of spare cash right now, as I LOVE original machines.
I've got to check my Powerball numbers from Wed. night  :hopefull:

I've never seen as nice a machine in any flavor.
My kids would inherit that if I owned it!

It will be tough to let it go, but I need to downsize my stuff. Moving from Kansas to San Antonio and they are getting tougher to move each time. I reserve is a modest reserve, not looking for 12K like others have done in the past! We will see what happens.

Good Luck with the sale too!

You got that right!

Absolutely gorgeous machine, Brian!!  Best of luck on the sale!

I completely agree with the difficulty to move...makes me wonder why I keep buying more knowing the Air Force will be moving me making me move at least a couple more times!  I am just a glutton for punishment.
