I finally get to post one!

Two different ads, both came through, was surprised neither one was already gone, but here they are.

Unfortunately, couldn't find the glass or top bracket to hold it for the BZ. He'll look, tho. Needs PS rebuild.

Looking to replace the CPO for Centipede. Any opinions on the Arcadeshop version vs. the ArcadeOverlays? Also, there is no sign of any fluorescent behind the marquee... shouldn't it be lit?

Also got a Spy Hunter last week, for which I need the speaker grilles (not rectangles, not ovals... specific to Spy Hunter?)

Nice score! I have both of these cabarets as well. The BZ cabaret I got at an auction years ago. It was complete but didn't play. After drilling out the locks, I found about $10 in quarters in the bottom of it. Considering I paid less than $30 for it, it was a great deal!

Nice score.
I have a nice set of Spy Hunter speaker grills. No rust, good paint.
PM me if you like.

marquee is not lit on centipede but was for tempest. people have put lights in there though.
 
Very nice, I love cabarets because they can often yield those critical inches that make the difference in a game room layout.
 
My BZ cabaret gets lots of love from a few folks, funny that some people would rather play the cabaret than the full size, I prefer the larger one but the cabaret is so cool and fits great in my gameroom..
 
Man that sucks that the guy misplaced the glass and the bracket! Was the glass silkscreened on those? How the hell do you lose a piece of glass???
 
Thanks everyone. Signs of life:

Cleaned and lubed the trackball, much more fun now. Reflow on the BZ interconnect pins and they should be good. Any opinions on the Centipede CPO?
 
Nice pickup! Those are the last two Atari cabarets I need to have 'em all.

Battlezone and Asteroids Deluxe just have smoked plexi bezels, you can get new ones cut for around $25 at TAP Plastics, if there's a location near you. I can measure my old AD one if you need dimensions.
 
Very nice. Congrats. Some people really go in for those little cabs. I'm 6'6" so I prefer the full sized ones myself!
