School House Raid

Very cool. That Twin Skeet Shoot looked really cool. So did the Bally Roadrunner. Those Deco cabs were sweet as well. On a different note, imagine the asbestos in that place...

That schoolhouse is creepy as hell. Would make a great haunted house for Halloween tours.
 
It was an experience but a good one overall! Nice write up btw! I'm glad I went. I look forward to going to another at some point in the future! Those Decos looked sweet in person. Where you able to contact ELutz or tta583 about getting that remaining base?
 
The creepy part was the basement. After everyone left they showed me the electrical system. Around the corner there was a dead cat that was basically mummified completely intact. You could see where the maggots ate the cat and died laying around it. I think Brent took a picture that was wild. I will post a pic of my find once I get my trailer unloaded.
 
Any Crazy Kong stuff in the bootleg conversion room? :D (didn't see anything that looked like it in the pics)

That must have been while Tim and I were packing our trucks. I'm actually glad I didn't see that!
 
Nice find. Looks like one of the poker machines with the plastic shroud is a converted Gotcha or Rebound. Too bad about the Allied Clay Champ. This appears to be a converted? Mirco Games cab.

Great pics, thanks! Am I the only one actually more interested in the piles of parts/artwork/etc., opposed to the full games? :)
 
Well, for those that missed it...it looks like I will be there on Feb 11th. I am picking some stuff up so we are using it as an opportunity to have a quick sale for folks that have approached me after the fact. Folks that missed the date, did not have room for pieces, etc... I am not doing the full bore deal that I did last time!! It will be just be myself and the op. I'm not reaching out to the locals for help...I am sure, after all the work, they all hate me right now!! :D

If your interested drop me a PM. I will put up another thread in a bit.
 
@iggins - I was super interested in the artwork in the bootleg room myself, there were really no parts to speak of, the kit boxes were empty. I'll be posting about the artwork I grabbed soon.
 
This is what I call my best find of the weekend maybe the year. Did I mention it works like a champ. Dirty but not rusty or beat to hell. The date code in the light was 1959. I know its not everyone's cup of tea but will look great in the basement. Everything I hauled out that Saturday worked.
