Nice Shot Space Cadet...I Devour Coins! Prepare For Annihilation!

I picked up a game that I never thought would be fun, but is quickly becoming a favorite.

All hail the supreme Gorfian Empire!

For $60, I couldnt resist. It looks bad, but it will be a sinch to restore. All I need is a couple more light bulbs and a marquee to make it complete. This will be the first game I will be able to show in the Restoration showcase. I am going to clean everything up really nice, sand everything down and bondo, repaint everything, new side art, and give it a whole lotta TLC. Also going to rebuild the monitor chassis, it needs a little work.

Oh! And it even came with a bonus! An extra boardset and manual, both found in the bottom of the machine. The original owners said theyve never opened the back of the machine. Yahtzee!! :D Not too bad for 3 Jacksons if I do say so myself!

You're going to restore it.....ahhh, I'm bowing to you as I type. Nice score, great game dude. Can't wait to see it all done. Hey if you ever need some pointers on gameplay you know who to PM.
 
Cool pickup! I have a Gorf mini here that I'm piecing back together--was having a devil of a time finding a cabaret CP, then 2 of them popped up on ebay within a week of each other. Still looking for a boardset myself, but they're out there. I look forward to your restoration thread.
 
Very nice score. :)

Now someone help this man out with restoration funds by buying that Minipede he has for sale!
 
Yep Gorf is awsume...

Wanna see a good example of a gorf restore? Look at Spyridon gorf restore on arcade controls.


Really does not look bad. Looks like you need to remove the black paint off the laminate in the front, why did they do that. I have several gorf marquees, they are not in the best shape but usable. You can have one for shipping price if you want it. I am moving so it will be several weeks before I can ship but it is yours if you want one.
