A trip upstate yielded a console revelation, and a " barn find "

This weekend we had a much anticipated trip upastate to my girlfriends parent's house in sullivan county new york. The big question was how was i going to pass the time while Catherine and her mom spent quality time together? the answer..... Vectrex!!!!!! This weekend solidified the vectrex as the greatest game console of all time!!!! self contained, no muss, no fuss! now onto the "find" I was passing time in their barn poking around and what do i find? A power supply, boardset, monitor, wiring harness, and coin box! After further investigation it happens to be the remains of what was once an upright tapper! The game was converted to a 1992 atari something. I brought the remains home, and intend to use the monitor ( if it works ) and coin box, but if anyone wants the power wiring harness or the atari boardset, its yours!!!
