Not sure what model it is, maybe you could give him a call.  Not to far from where I am at, I can help you out.

gone before I could even make a call  :down: Thank tkaz for keeping a eye open for me :smile:.

I have two ideals you may be able to convert  :)

I have someone that is looking for one   and did not want a Ideal or Glasco but thank for the offer Jim. :smile:

Hah, i've redeemed myself:

The ad date is Dec 14, so still recent.

This looks like a good deal it may hurt on the shipping

I wonder what portion of that total $ the Cornelius amounts to? Hopefully not too much.
The one in Seattle looks good. Maybe a little high on the price.
I really like mine.

Local/downriver Detroit area,  but it's missing the rack...   http://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/app/2068088537.html (http://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/app/2068088537.html)

Even have woodgrain.
Pat's favorite finish :-)
Good luck on the hunt.

Holly Hanna, leave the site to talk to Leonard for 2Hr's  ( yes really 2hrs and we talked about soda machine  And what would happen if leonards wife hit $100,000.00 He would have a superbird in that garage :tounge:) And look what you guys did  Well I've got to make a call to my client and see what he would like to do , Then make some calls to these people  with these Cornelius sliders. :smile:.

Ask and you shall receive........except for the Superbird........that would have to stay with me........ :biggrin:

Funny thing...
Just today, a guy called looking for a Cornelius Compact 50 in a DP theme.
His father-in-law passed away and had this cooler for some 20+ years; however, it was left to another sister but he wanted to have one like it...

I have not seen one of these in the DP green w/ a DP medallion and light-up marquee...

Jim Sent you a message.

If you run across one without a rack. Keep in mind I still have the NOS can rack with NOS coin mech, paperwork, keys, and original coin box $50.00 plus shipping.
I dont know what model it fits but can supply measurements

Is this what you are looking for? http://cgi.ebay.com/Small-6-Selection-Cold-Drink-Soda-Vending-Machine-coke-/150540482063?pt=BI_Vending&hash=item230ce9760f

My wife and I went and took a look at an old house, circa 1900, in our city's historic district the other day. After looking at the upper levels of the home we made our way down into the basement. I was poking around in a corner looking at electrical and plumbing when the wife calls out "Hey, look at this, it's a Coke machine!" I almost snapped my neck in two turning around to look.

Turns out it's a Cornelius Compact 50 with rack and everything! It surprised me to see the machine down there and I was equally surprised that my wife found it before I did! There's hope yet!!! :laugh:

The owner of the home lives down in Florida full time now. If we end up making an offer on the house I'm pretty sure the machine comes with it.

So should I look at it from the standpoint of the house comes with the machine or the machine comes with the house.......

Not finding it in the usual spots

There is a Light up Dr Pepper Bar for the back of a Corn 50 on ebay right now.. sorry couldn't find it at the time of typing this, but was there yesterday.

Brian,

Make sure you put it in your offer to purchase that comes with the house. Do you want me to start the offer?

John,

You you recall the section/category...?
I just searched several areas but came up empty...

Thanks ! ! !

I just went and checked on a bottle rack I have for a C-50.  It's the chrome rack, not the painted one.  Not quite as nice as I remembered it, some small scattered rust spots, but would probably clean up pretty nice with a little elbow grease.  Plus the price is right.  If you find a cooler without the guts, you can have the rack.  It came out of  one I bought for next to nothing on a whim a while back.  Took a risk sight unseen and it turned out the cabinet was shot.  Kept the rack and coin mechanism, recycled the box.  If it turns out you need one and are interested, just let me know and I can send you a pic.  Good luck on your hunt.

 hey John I also did a search  and cant find that light  just wondering if you remember  or could find it again  :smile:.

  Thanks
   Pat

Pat,

Here is a DP Cornelius with lighted sign on the GR CL.  Looks like it was an auction on 12-22 but it might not have sold.

Hey Tim, Contacted the guy he is calling Monday,  Ideal BOB  gave me a lead that may pan out I meet up with this guy monday night   
so this is going to work out either way. :smile:

Pat,

Here is another one in IN just outside of Indy if the other one does not work out.  This one looks real clean too.

 :drinking: Tim :drinking:

That's in Danville IL Not really close to Indy. But i can help if someone needs it.

      So I counted 7 of these sliders in this post. Guess they are not too hard to find huh?

Pat,

Here is another one done up in RC with the light bar.  Price seems high but it is a lot closer to home.

about 30 minutes left on this one

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310282964172+

Oh, but no shipping.

Wished I hadda known about 2 weeks ago as there was 1 near me and it had the light up lid as well

SOrry Guys , can't find it now either? I just came across it on a search under "Signs" in the advertising category.  I searched again and no go.. sorry next time will note the auction number. :darn:

OK picked up the Cornelius  this was one Leonard had me look at it was at a auction and did not sell   this cooler is N.O.S.   it was never used
it still has the owners manual in plastic . the cap catcher is still in the box .  
There are two left and my client already has first dibbs on a second one , So if any of you want one let me know (just a note the third one does not have the light on the back

And one more thing my client wants a can rack  in this so I need to trade  if there is someone willing to do this (and it is a new never use rack) :smile:

great find, how old are those mid 70's?  I didn't realize there were so many out there until this posting.

Tell you what I'll get some better pictures tomorrow.  It was two hours there and about two back the weather was bad
in some areas, so glad to be back home.

Those are awesome! I would love to have one of those but I know my parents would not go for it at all.

wow, seems pretty rare to find something like that NOS, great find.  Is he leaving the woodgrain?

What did you end up paying Pat?

Isn't that a can rack that Joey has listed?

Nice find Pat. I remember one of these from my barber's shop in the 70's. I always had to get a cold soda out of the slider. It was wood grained also but it's still pretty cool.

Bubba I paid $150 for it  and yeah I got to get in touch with Joey on the Rack that he has.

  Here is some better pictures

Pat,

I am not positive but I think the can racks were for the larger cornelius cooler only. I have had several of both and I have never seen a compact 50 with a can rack. I have only seen the larger cooler.

I've seen a Corny' compact-50 with a can rack in person (it was compressor a repair job)

Yeah I remember that one John . Bubba I'll send you a message. In a little while.

Here are some pictures of the SV  Sun Crest/Dr Pepper it is a Big machine  and he wants $350. for it
