Came across this on Craig's List today!
http://phoenix.craigslist.org/clt/423323046.html
Complete and the woman said there were no major dents or rust - PayPal'd money - pick up tomorrow.
For $300 I can't go wrong.

Great find, I really like the sliders and that looks like a good one.  I can even see the rack in the one photo it just looks like the back bolts are out.

Congrats on the sliders.. I love them too.. .run one daily on the back porch minus rack with pop and beer and water in it... bear to completeley restore, but maybe just needs a cosmetic facelift... I bought that pepsi on in Il for $300 and change with Rack, but just yesterday got a lead on a ideal JR , No rack for $300... so gotta follow up on that .

Just got back from looking at another CL listing.
Looks like I'll be getting a Cav 72 for $800 - gave a 10% deposit with balance and p/u due on Monday.
More to follow.....
One heck of a CL day!!

Wow, great!  Most of what I see on Craigslist locally is priced way too high.

Tom,

If my memory serves me, you reside in the Scottsdale area...
If true, I'm going to talk with my good friend that lives around the corner from you and get him to start keeping an eye out there in your neck of the woods ! ! !
You've been really acquiring some good stuff as of late...
Most unfair for the rest of us folks...

No need to involve other people Jim - I already have BryanH.

About the Cav72:
Both the Glasco and Cav72 were on CL. I called the number on the Glasco and they kind of balked at holding it for me until tomorrow, so I asked some questions about it and if they had a PayPal account. She said they did and I said I would PP the amount - figured I couldn't go wrong on a complete slider unless I got taken for the full amount, but I felt pretty comfortable talking to her.
The Cav72 was also listed midday today as a 1958-1959 Coke machine and not much else. I emailed and left my number. I got a call a little after 4pm. I asked a few questions and was told it was a CV72 - at first I thought it was a ChoiceVend. I asked if it had square corners or round corners - he said round - I knew right then it was a CS72. He said he was leaving right then to go down to the storage unit and was supposed to meet somebody else. I jumped in the car and took off. It is one of the straightest bodies I have seen, but has some other paint on it. I could see the shelves and rack through the bottle door, but the coin door was locked. Laid down I could see a solid compressor compartment, so I decided to do it sight unseen so to speak.

Then the other guy showed up - snooze you lose!

I'll be sure to post all pics when they get home.
