Title: Ideal 55 Resto: Nesbitt’s or Royal Crown?? Post by: tshulman on September 13, 2023, 08:01:03 pm I recently picked up two Ideal slider 55’s: a Nesbitt’s and a Royal Crown. I think between them I have enough good parts to restore one. Once done I plan to sell it. Based on these brands & the re-sale value, which one would you recommend I restore & which one goes to the junk yard??
