Is this actually a pepsi or repainted coke?  Also, $ value would be?  I'm not that familiar with these machines. 

Thanks in advance, wep

$400 -500.
Nice little machine, but not many people like the one flavor small bottle capacity.

They're askin' $250.  I take it you're implying these were made for Pepsi?

        No, that machine was made for Coke (see the red paint under the blue)?
Pepsi had their own version made with embossed letters.
        Asking price is $250?   :Oo:    Parts!   parts!    parts!
        That round drum inside would sell for that much, those double doors are
often missing one side or another, the slug rejector/ coin mec. and handle are
worth a hundred bucks.......and that wire bottle holder on the side will bring in
$50. It's definately priced right, now make him an offer.
         

But why take an intact, non beaten machine and part it out? Okay, besides the profit  factor?
It doesn't take up a lot of floor space, redone in coke red and white it has a cool factor and looks to be an easy resotre.  Shrug.

       I used to think the same way. Watched Jeff Walters buy a complete VMC 33 at
Chigago show, swipe the drum and some rollers..lift the main door off and into his
truck and leave the body with compressor in the parking lot  :darn:
       Fast forward 10 years...........there are more people who own these machines
looking for parts to complete them, than there are people looking for complete
machines to start on as projects.

If you or anyone else ends up picking this up. I would be interested in just the body and door. I don't need any insides, or coin mech, ect... Just the shell. also, if anyone near PA has a 27 or 33 un-embossed please let me know. Again I only need the shell. Thanks.
