After 18+ years I'm calling it quits fellas. My family and I are moving and I decided not to take any of the games with. It's been a good ride! Most of the games went to close friends, so they're not gone forever out of my life. I'll still be able to get fired up for a game of Gorf every now...

This year's party will be on Saturday, Oct. 18, 3PM-? Everyone is welcome to stay over if you need to; bring a pillow, blanket, mattress pad, etc. I only have one couch that is even halfway comfy, and our floors are hardwood. Just giving fair warning on that. I'll be serving up some sloppy...

Latest B&W addition: Atari Anti-Aircraft with strange UFO mod Did a little trading with Andre (rhombus) today and acquired this B&W Atari Anti-Aircraft. Andre read up on the undocumented UFO mod and did the modifications to have the aircraft (that you shoot at) replaced by UFOs. Here's a...

On their website it says the bezel fits Williams cabs. Well, all Williams cabs aren't the same. I just did a swap with a fellow klov member today, his working MW game (in a Moon Patrol cab), for my pile of parts and a Joust cab + cash. The MW bezel I bought for the Joust cab obviously is way...

"Nautical" touch in The Lost Highway Arcade Today I rearranged the small side of my arcade, adding Sea Wolf to the lineup. I moved my high score board over by the slot machine, and also added a cool "Heavy Metal" (from the 1981 movie) velvet painting on the wall behind the theater seats. I...

Not mine. Worth looking into at that price. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/for/4139554196.html

I restored this turnstile a while back. At the newest it is from the 1950s, although it could date back to the 30s. There's not much info on these. It's a pretty rare beast. Works 100%. It was sandblasted, primed, painted (3 coats), and clearcoated (2 coats). The guts needed some...

Thought I'd try something different this year while we were carving pumpkins. I quickly free-handed a Space Invader on there, then used 2 different size endmills in my drill to carve away some of the skin. I didn't really have any good attachments for my dremel tool that I could try. Didn't...

Video walk through of The Lost Highway Arcade, October 2012 I haven't done a walkthrough video in a long time, so here's an update. I hope this link works, if not bear with me while I upload to YouTube It works, just click on the pic and it shoots you to my photobucket link

Thanks to super56K for harvesting a trashed Sprint 2 I got me some needed replacement parts for my game. I got both pedal assemblies, both speakers, and an unhacked coin door with the mechs including the coin box. The right side pedal on my game had a broken spring, causing the car to not slow...

I've been working on this Space Invaders mural on one wall of my "Missile Command" room for quite some time. I just finished it up tonite (although I may add some other things eventually). I'm a little disappointed with the pictures because they distort the real look of the mural. Because...

Most of you have seen the old theater seats from the 1930s I have on one side of my arcade. (If not just check out my photobucket page in my signature) Well I needed something else on the other side for people to sit on. I found this old bench at an antique swap meet. It came out of a boy's...

I needed just a bit more "umph" to the music volume in my arcade, so I did a search on ebay and found these. I like unique things that you just don't see too often. These are from the 60s (according to the seller). Got the pair for $25. They are in really good shape considering their age...

"The Lost Highway" Arcade party October 20, 2012 This year's party is scheduled for Saturday, October 20 starting at 2PM. You can come anytime after Noon. I know there is a lot of guys driving quite a distance, so let's maximize your time here. Since each year the number of people here...

To connect my "Missile Command" room with the small side of my arcade. The only problem was there is a ton of crap in the way. An outlet, 2 water pipes and a drain pipe, and two 2x4s. So I contemplated it for months while I worked on other projects. Finally got it done. Now there is a hole...

Alan173 stopped by last Saturday while on vacation. It was awesome to finally meet in person and share my arcade. We played a lot of skeeball, and of course some Sprint 2 as well. To watch Alan drive wide open in 4th gear and crash once was almost comical it was so awesome! He put up a score...

For me it's my Wizard of Wor. I bought it back in March of '98. I did a monitor swap and replaced the RAM board I believe. It's been running with no problems ever since. Second place goes to Gyruss. Bought it from a friend of mine who bought it from an OP. It was stored in an old church...

Brett made me this custom sign a while back. I finally got it painted and mounted down in my arcade, so I thought I'd share. I sent a couple pics of one downed pilot to Brett, along with a font I wanted him to use. He went from there and created what you see. I gave it two coats of primer...

Capcom Bowling shafts and bearings...same as Missile Command? I finally tore apart my dedicated Capcom Bowling and was thinking about replacing the shafts and bearings as they are very worn. Are they the same as the ones on Missile Command? If so, what's a good source for these? Thanks
