After winning my girlfriend and I braved the journey from Milwaukee, Wi. to almost Marquette, Mi! It was almost five and a half hours one way. We decided to go up Sunday night, stay over and then head home today.

 

We stayed at a little motel called "Cedar Motor Inn" that was a fun little throwback to the 70's, at least in room design.

 

We arranged to meet the seller at noon, he's a nice guy who had his dog with him the entire time. he helped me load the games, I did bring some shrink wrap, but gave up on it after it became a chore to do.

 

So here goes with the games..

 

All the games had no water damage, some normal wear, and in one case a karate kick to the area above the coin door.

 

Ms. Pac-man - Cabaret - Completely wired, but the pcb was given to me on its own, so there prob is something wrong with it, cab is great, needs a new cpo and a cleaning.

 

Pac-man - Cabaret - also completely wired, and had the pcb in unit, couldn't plug this one in as the cord was cut. The only damage to the cab was a break where a kid kicked it, It isn't noticeable, and a L bracket mounted inside should make it stronger. the side vinyl needs to be replaced also as some of it has been removed.

 

Centipede - Wasn't supposed to work, but fired right up and I got to play a game or two at home. Monitor has some wonky colors, Cpo and trackball need help. Both start buttons lit!

 

Asteroids - I have almost all the parts to re-wire this one, including pcb. Monitor might need a part or two? Anyone have pictures as to whats on the neck, it looks like its missing something. He was going to gut and kill the cab, I saved it, the pictures show how much it was needing to be saved.

 

WWF Superstars - Supposedly dedicated? Works real well except the monitor is so dark, can barely see to play. CPO is old and dry, cracking up very bad, also peeling off the panel itself. Rest of the game is very solid and clean, esp the inside!

 

Over all not a bad price for all of these.

 

Here are some pix
