The pedals are VP (I think the V stands for victor?) but they were the cheap knock offs BITD though Ironically they are still in business and Suntour isn't. VP were the OEM pedals for a lot of bikes.
The difference in prices back in the 80's were you could buy the VP like yours for $10, but the actual Suntour were $25. Now days a decent set like you have is worth $20-$30 where as the Suntours are over $100. Heck if you find a set of suntours NOS in a box they go over $300!!
Here's a pic of the Suntour
