My Tank cocktail from Colorado. I'm totally stoked as I haven't played Tank since my old Atari 2600 and not in a public location since the mid 70's.

My Grandparents had chairs like those.
Nice score,but why do they put that ugly wood grain on the cocktails?
 
You could have at least found one in good shape...

I know huh, but hey I'll take what I can get (you're a pain you know that right ) ;) Part of the reason I had to have this one as
it is as near perfect as I think you can find especially given it's popularity in the early 70's. Wait till you see the other two POS
I have arriving in the next 2 weeks...

My only complaint really about the Tank/Pong Cocktails but hey it was the 70's. You remember barrel furniture, green shag carpet,
extra large pointy collars on your shirts. Hell by those standards that woodgrain is pretty cool...

The only other thing I could have asked for with this piece is if it had this top.

That is just too cool! It looks like a pretty fun head to head game.... plus the cabinet looks like it is in great shape. Post some more pics once it arrives!

You know, there may be someone that can make an underlay for that...
 
Nice! I have the guts from a Tank upright that ArcRevival and I pulled from a barn. One of these days I plan to rebuild the cabinet and get it going. I'm also working on building a new cab for the barn-find BiPlane. I love these old b&w games.
 
too funny there was just one here for sale in portland a few days ago?
did anyone out here get it?
I think it was 2 bills

That is WAY COOL! I've been looking for a Tank for awhile now and would take either a cocktail or an upright.

Good score! Looks to be in great cosmetic shape, and it works too!

Enjoy!

Fun game. I liked playing Blinddog's at the Seattle show.
