I drove into North Idaho Tonight to pick up my new game.
Anyway he had a few machines for sale. He had a nice Mario and a Space Invaders Deluxe, but the machine that brought me over was a Moon Patrol. I loved this machine back in the golded era, and after playing Dokerts at the show last year It has been on my priority list.
So I drive to Idaho. I had no picture of this machine, I was just told it worked. I got there and he said he just turned it on, and it was not working. I looked over the machine, No water damage, The nicest original sideart I have seen. WOW. Coin door was beat up. I told him that I had expected a working machine and asked him if he would come down on the price a bit. He said how about $100.
I got home unplugged and plugged back in the edge connector. and it fired right up!! WTF I never get that lucky!! It needs a cap kit but its playable.
Here are some pics of my $100 Grail.
