I bought the guts from a stripped ameridarts machine and when it arrived yesterday, the monitor chassis had been smashed by the postal service. ( http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=118461 ) Well, today I won auctions for 2 machines dirt cheap on the caveat that I pick them up right away. No easy task considering one was a full Cyber Sled game. These 2 guys had a few machines and had to get rid of them ASAP because their warehouse lease had expired, and had no place for them. I picked up the machines (the other was a Bally Sente with Mini Golf in it) and as I was loading up, the guy came out with another box full of stuff and said I could have it. The first thing I noticed was another monitor chassis sitting right on top. Same model and everything but in much better shape than my broken one. Yay! All was even in my karma-world. When I got home, I started going through the box to find a monitor shroud (which my mappy cab needed), a brand new Playchoice CPO (conveniently, I have a PC-10 CP with a shredded overlay), another game, marquee, and unpopulated control panel for the Sente cab (Gimme a Break) and a new set of pots for the Cyber Sled controls. I'd have to say that I made out like a bandit today. I'll post pics of my 2 new cabs when I get them cleaned up a little.

Congrats ... you still need that MiniGolf Control panel?

I sent you a PM on it a few days ago. I think I have a trackball I can throw in there for you as well if that helps ...

The one on there doesn't look too bad. I haven't started playing with it yet, but I'll be sure to let you know when I do. Maybe later tonight.
