Here is few pictures of my Barq's 55 Slider.  

It took the blasting pretty well it's been a real mess getting this one started.  Bought originally as just the box only and many pieces as it was started and never was finished.  Very easy to locate parts, picked them up here and there.  

The liner was completely wasted so I had to find a donor machine just for the liner!  Worked out well because I needed other goodies like kids stops, locks, etc.  

I'll post some more pics as the machine starts to take shape!

I haven't seen any glass bottles of Barq's yet local!  Glass bottled soda has gained some popularity at the rate I'm going maybe in 10 years there will be!

Wondering if you decided on your color scheme when you repaint?
