This is about as close to a 10 that I have... I would say 9.2.
It is missing a trim pc on the side, and has a few minor scuffs near the bottom.

I also have a VMC 72 that is about a 9 in my books.... no pic of  that as I am at work

I've got a buddy that has a Pepsi 81 that was found in the back room of a Laundry Mat. It was used for a little over a year before the place was closed up and forgotten about for decades. It is by far the nicest unrestored Pepsi 81 that I've seen.

Do you have a pic or two of this machine for educational purposes, I understand it won't be hitting the market.

I didn't really need to buff the machine much.... it was an indoor machine its entire life, but really it was stored away longer than it was in use (from what was told to me).

The guys I bought it from bought it from an estate sale where the owned had passed away, and the kids were selling everything at a yard sale.... these guys bought it for a few hundred.... then flipped it to me.

What I did use was a cleaning compound and then a wax to buff it up.
