Joe, it's  post factory modified.
Imagine your Glasco  with the top lid sealed and a counter top added. Cool if you don't have the space for a full blown bar.

I assume the whole bartop flips in order for you to retrieve the drink???

If you're facing the front of the machine, the loading door is on the right side. The rack will be removed, a shelf may or not be installed.

No pictures of the inside, A new latch was added to the loading door (last pic)  but i wonder if the liner was replaced, or cleaned

How much do you think this would cost to make? Sliders that are missing the lid, rack, and coin mech aren't expensive. Is most of the cost in the counter? The paint?

that is how these came about, 2 restorers dan cooney and russ newman.  there was a surplus of sliders that were missing parts coin mechs, sliders, or generics.  they could buy them cheap but what to do with them.  they starting making these counter top models, and selling them with stools.  as i stated in a previous post they sell them for about 3500.00 at the chicagoland show.  it is mainly just russ newman now.  he does a pretty nice job on them
