two cabinets buried in the back of my garage that i would like to pass on for free before parting out.

first is a Centuri Pleiads that had been converted to a Crown Vending Super Bike. good: has SB (DK compatible?) harness, switching PS, bezel glass, coin door, back door, converted CP with SB CPO + buttons. bad: no board, no monitor, a few chipped corners, no joystick, no Pleiads art. fairly solid and would make a nice multi-Konami which was what i was going to do with it before i just started buying the whole games.

second is a very water damaged Orca Springer that had been converted to a Ladybug. good: rare game, has Universal/Ladybug harness which was working, converted CP with odd overlay, decent Springer bezel, coin door. bad: previous owner was an idiot, left it out in the rain when the monitor took a dive and now some parts are crumbling. there are no other Springer art or parts except maybe a really sloppy joystick. the top came off when i pulled the [bootleg Ladybug] marquee. the ATI monitor is bad but since the cab takes a vertical shelf-mount frame you may want to take it anyway. i'd love to see someone restore this but i fear it's too far gone to be reasonably salvaged. if someone picks this up i'll happily include the Ladybug PCB which had an error in that it draws a few sprites in the wrong places.

these aren't going away immediately and i'll put 'em up on SMAC and CL before tearing these apart but i'm starting this spring on my garage rebuild project so i can have my dedicated arcade space and i need to make some more room.

no pics at the moment but if someone is serious i might have one or two of the Springer on my computer at home and i can take some of the Pleiads on Saturday.

ok, found an old thread that has some Springer pics in it: http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=53332&highlight=springer

cab doesn't look as bad as i remember it being; maybe i'm being overly dramatic about the water damage. still free anyway! have the Ladybug marquee too!
