Looks like it is missing the rack and the coin mech for starters. That's $500+ in parts if you are wanting to restore it to original operating condition.
The water fountain is not an added bonus, more of a detractor - it is mounted where the coin mech should go.
Personally I would pass for that price and condition.

Some shop owners would have these installed as a way to offer free cold water to their customers. I think they were strictly after-market.
They could use the refrigeration system already in the machine to cool a coil of copper tubing flowing through the cabinet. I have a VMC33 with the same water fountain setup.

If that was one of the other sliders and not pepsi, it might be a good find. Since its pepsi, its pretty common and get parted out a lot. I have a complete one that is sadly worth more in parts then as a machine. Its going in for the old chop,chop pretty soon.
