Taking a Quantum Leap - Hailrazer's Quantum Restore
So I bought a Repro Quantum Pcb last year. Got it populated and finished up. But no way to test it.
About the same time a good friend of mine gave me a K6100 from a Space Duel. Said he wanted me to put it to good use. I re-built it and set it aside.
Fast forward to Feb 1st. My friend text me and tells me he found a working Atari Badlands in Dothan Alabama. And it was in a Quantum Cab in good condition. The guy wanted $300 for it.
Well I texted the guy. Turns out he is a radio personality there in Dothan. He bought the game from FunSpot there in Dothan. He knew it was in a Quantum cab and he knew it was rare. But he wanted it to go to someone who would restore it.
He asked if I had anything to trade for it. Well I had a working Space Invaders that i got for $75. He was thrilled! We agreed on the trade and I picked it up Feb 4th.
Here's what it looked like when I got it.
