Saw it on CL last weekend and sent a few emails but didn't get a response. Guy ended up calling me back on Tuesday, but I wasn't able to head out until Friday to pick it up. He agreed to hold it until then and give me first crack at it, which was unexpected. When I went to pick it up, he said he had another person offer him $100 more to sell it to them, which he turned down. If that person is reading this, sorry!

It's a bit rusty, but everything works. It's got Baseball playing on both sides, or at least it did...it's current in pieces out in the garage, being stripped and painted. I'll probably throw up a thread in the resto forum at some point this week once I get it back together.

Great machine! Fun for parties. Lots of differnet options....
 
Nice addition to your collection! I love my Red Tent and cant wait to start its restoration.
Nice to see a seller being so straight up on that deal! You always hear about people getting screwed, nice to see the opposite. :)
 
Working on getting one of these back in my collection as well. Need to pick me up some red wrinkle powder coat to do it up right. :D
 
Burn is bad on one monitor, the other one is so-so. Here's the worse of the two, camera died before I could take a pic of the other monitor.

Congrats! I just picked up my Red Tent this past Friday along with a dedicated Karate Champ which I made a thread about (shameless plug).

Mine has Duck Hunt on one side (not for long) and Castlevania on the other. One question though as my mine is a bit beat & rusted as well, do you have the paint code for the Red Tent's red?

I don't - the color I'm using is a bit brighter than the original, but It'll work for me.
