Rc chest

[Eric]

Wow!... Way to go Kevin... That's a deal!.... Hmmmm Maybe I should look into this Craig list thing... Wonder if they have it for Missouri.....

Eric

Nice score Kevin!

Kevin,

I would grab that in a heartbeat.  It looks to be a real clean slider at a great price.  Most importantly, it has the rack.  I see people on ebay selling the rack for almost as much as this machine.  

I have an Ideal Slider in my office and love it.  She will hold almost any glass or plastic bottle and is nice and compact.  I have bought and sold a couple of these.  I am restoring a Glasco slider for a client who saw my machine and had to have one.  

Of all of the Ideal or Glasco 55's I have had, I have never had any of them have a refrigeration problem.  I always change the cords, check the wiring and they have all fired right up and cooled down.  

For the rest of you guys, I have found a ton of good stuff on Craigslist.  It is probably the only place to find actual bargains online.  I found the rack, coin mech and a bunch of other stuff for my first slider on it for $100.00, and found the Ideal slider I have in my office (which was complete, but a little rough) for $50.00.

Did you read Jasmines post today? Missed a slider by 2 hours.      BUY it and don't haggle on price. He may change his mind tomorrow.

I'm still kicking myself on that one.

But the upside is I got to spend those few hours between phone calls with
a great friend I hadnt seen since last New Years Day.

Snap that baby up.  Should be easy to make a nice profit on that one.

Hello

Here is the update.

$400 & they will deliver it to me next Wednesday. They offered to split the cost of $50 for gas but I said I would pay it all. So $350 for the slider & $50 for deliver. I think I am getting a deal.

I will post more pictures when I get it.

Now how to work on these things? New fan motors etc. Something new to learn.

Only 1 fan motor.  The nice thing about the sliders is how simple they are.  There is a post on here somewhere by JohnieG that explains how the Ideal cooling systems works with some great drawings.

Hey

RC Cola is inbound for the SC coast on Wednesday. The former owner said she will call when shne gets off I-95. I am sure  each of  you understands the excitment of a new machine arriving. It will  be hard to sleep tonight.

Wow

Its in the back of my truck! This thing is great & you would think that the money mechanism was right out of the factory. Complete Ideal 55 that is fully functional. Locks, rack, crank handle etc.

So I will load it with product tonight & get it ready for Thanksgiving.

Pictures tonight when I get it home.
