Title: Glasco Cooler
Post by: bubba on May 11, 2008, 09:36:13 pm
I'm interested in this Glasco cooler.. What are they going for... it has a coin mech, no rack, no key and untested. Small rust on the side door..

untested is the big part.. make sure it cools first....
200-250 is fair with no rack... maybe 300 if you really like it and it doesn't need to be restored?

figure another $250 for a repro rack,   used ones  show up on Ebay,  but far and in between.
I would also think around the 200 - @250 range, if it  cools

I would honestly prefer them without the rack. You have several upright machines for sodas and beer this would be a great reach in cooler for everything else.

I agree with Josh, Really, they are Much better without the rack if you really want to use it as an everyday cooler.. YOu can have a cool looking vintage cooler running 24/7 and put anything in it from cans, bottles food, etc...  Just use it as a reach in cooler.
For the collectability and display, yeah the rack is nice to have in there , but for everyday use,,, I have mine out and sitting on a shelf somewhere..
