      Don't mean to brag, but the Coca Cola angels must be with me this year!
      As I mentioned in another post, we set up a display at the antique swap
meet this past weekend and handed out lots of buisness cards.
      Yesterday I got a call from a lady who had a friend that picked up one of
these cards. Her ex husband had a complete Glasco slider who stripped it down
with the full intentions of restoring it. He had also had the slider rack powdercoated
and had a new lid made for it. All parts were stored inside the box and the complete
machine was wrapped with shrink wrap to prevent rust!

      She said I could have it for free if I would just come and get it out of her garage!

      Needless to say, I was there within the hour jawdrop

      Put out the word guys, because great machines are still hiding out there!

The key phrase there is "her exhusband".  I figured he must be already gone or on his way out".

WOw...Great Score... I was waiting to read you got it for 50 or 100 bucks which still would have been great, but Free is always better!
looks to be in good shape too and complete!
Congrats

Great score Glen ! ! !

I've said this many times here, "You just never know where and when a good deal will pop up!"
As Glen stated, people need to know you're looking for soda machines; if you don't tell then, they cannot contact you...
