Just received this picture in an email from the person I'm buying a certain game from... man oh man I can't wait until tomorrow afternoon. :D

[edit]

Have fun moving it around! Seriously, they're a pain to move, so tall.. but few cabinets are as cool as an upright BZ. I had one, but now only have a cabaret that I'm looking forward to restoring.

Good luck-

Except for the rubber on the step, if you look at this game from the front it is in damn nice condition. The control panel overlay is just awesome. The Plexiglas bezel and marquee only have a couple scratches each. The wifey even said "I'm not used to games looking this nice when they arrive". :)

The guy who delivered it was top-notch. And he had a couple surprises... one being he bought an NOS rebuild kit for the gimbal joystick 6 or 7 years ago before he stored this project. He also upgraded the linkages to aluminum. (pictures are at the above link)

The game was pretty dirty when it arrived but after 3 or 4 hours(and 3 or 4 beers)... it's looking better. The right side artwork is in a solid "B" condition and the left side is in "C to C-" condition(due to many nicks and scratches on the lower half).

I'm going to rebuild the A/R II and replace Big Blue before I even think of powering her up. Then the monitor will get a cap-kit and some new solder for all the pin strips.

I'm not sure... but I think I took possession of what some would call a "grail". :D At least it feels that way. :D
 
Congrats on the Red Baron,I just got mine fixed today.Sorry about the crappy pic.
