Title: 70's slider value?
Post by: BryanH on August 25, 2005, 03:07:33 pm
Got a response to a local online add for this slider... Looks complete but seller says it needs freon charge.   Don't know make or model.  Offering to sell for $100.

What else could be wrong with the cooling other than freon?
What's it worth?
Anything I should be wary of when I go to see it..

As always thanks for your insights...

Oh yeah - I really want a slider but not necessarily one with woodgrain!

Hey

That looks like the Cornelius Can slider I just bought for $66. Mine works great & it will hold a bunch of cans. I am going to take my machine to the office.

After looking at the picture again yours may be a bottle slider.

I would suspect that it may need a new evaporator fan motor.

Hello

Here is a link to my Cornelius slider.

Slider

My can slider has a plastic grid that hangs under the metal rack to hold the cans in place. Then there is a pre cool area under the rack down in the bottom of the machine.

Thanks Kevin - turns out that my local slider was in TN but reading ads from the Phoenix craiglist... Oh well, won't be looking at this one anytime soon.
