Nice $50 Atari Black & White Pick Up on Craigslist

[Parrothead]

Just scored this for $50. I had to roadtrip 8 hours roundtrip to Fresno to pick it up but totally worth it. It looks nice, powers on but doesn't coin up. I am guessing a simple grounding issue. I will probably get it running tomorrow. One of the most iconic games of the 70's I think.

You lucky bastard......

Duh. It says to make sure throttle is backed all the way off after play. I backed it off, clicked the coin switch and walla - player button lit up. Now I am playing me some Stunt Cycle. Goes to show - check the obvious first. Just have to replace the marquee light and it should look damn fine. For such a simple game it is really a hellofalot of fun

Reminds me off the lady who says something is wrong with her car, then the mechanic says "you are out of gas"

Nice Find on the Stunt Cycle, $50 is a steal! The guy would have been better off parting it out at that price.

Great deal. Good condition too.

That's awesome. I wish I had a fraction of that sort of luck.

You can barely buy the home console Stunt Cycle for $50.
