Title: Orange Crush Slider...Score one for me! Post by: SIGNGUY on May 12, 2010, 10:06:42 am Picked up this Orange Crush Slider , we'll actually found it on Craigslist one day last week, Made a deal with a guy and had it shipped to me yesterday.
I just got it out of my truck last night and snapped some photos this morning before work, Can't wait to tear into it. It's complete, rack, coin mech (don't think original, as it looks like from a glasco?) cap catcher and even the hex drive opener.. plus it runs/cools. body looks pretty decent, surface rust, trim looks pretty good, will see how it'll polish up and even lid isn't bad, but will most likely replace. Looking to do a full restore.. unless I get a good offer on it.. :biggrin: Title: Re: Orange Crush Slider...Score one for me! Post by: GreginNM on May 12, 2010, 10:15:49 am Nice score, John! I'll offer a good, hearty congratulations on getting a nice machine...is that good enough? :tounge:
I think I saw that on CL if memory serves, but didn't feel like shipping it or anything. Greg Title: Re: Orange Crush Slider...Score one for me! Post by: tkaz on May 12, 2010, 11:35:26 am Nice grab, I wouldn't mind if one of those showed up around here sometime...

He said he bought years ago at a sale, used it a bit and was going to restore it but decided to sell it.. Title: Re: Orange Crush Slider...Score one for me!
