A friend dropped over the other night and brought in a big package. When I asked what that was his response was that it was sitting at my door. I was like, Hmm. I took a look at the return address and there was kstillin.
kstillin helped me alot on my Star Trek G08 monitor a while back.
So I take the package into the kitchen and I get a steak knife to open it up.

A beautiful Sarge glass Marquee. First time I've seen one of these in some 30 years. He knew I'd been working at trying to put together a deal for one. Special thank you's to kstillin for just up and sending me this. I'll get one of these if I have to get it one piece at a time. :D
 
I have a working Sarge its in the same style cocktail cab as the Demolition Derby 4 player. If you think you might be interested in it LMK. I haven't quite decided if I want to keep it or not.
 
I have a Demo Derby cocktail conversion one that needs to go as well. It physically cannot make the turn on my stairwell into my basement, thus it has been in my shed since I picked it up.

Well I'm kind of holding out for an upright. So far I've collected the pcb, the squeak board and of course now the Marquee. I think the hardest to find part would be a populated control panel. And I'm pretty sure the cocktail control panel is not the same as the upright, although the sticks probably are.
 
The one here in Norfolk Virginia still shows up on craigslist for $400.00 every couple months. I guess it's too far for a road trip. :(
 
There is a guy that does make that trip apparently to come up and see Brett (DPTwiz) about cabinet purchases. It'd be nice if something could be arranged. Especially since he's driving right by me on the way.
Norfolk, VA is on the Atlantic Ocean. Too far for me to drive on an arcade run.
 
Talk to Kerry.. I think he may have a populated cp for the ur.
 
Well as most of you know I've been plugging away at this Operation Wolf game. Trying to get the sound to behave right. I ordered some resistors from Mouser and have been on the lookout for them.
This afternoon I stepped out to check my mailbox and found this huge thing sitting at my doorstep.

Like wth? So I bring it in and take a look at the return address...kstillin? Oh no, what did he do now? So I go to the kitchen to get a steak knife to open this Heavy Duty, ultra-strong homemade box to reveal the contents:

3 letters--OMG. OMG, OMG! Kstillin's done it again! Thank you Kerry. I immediately set off to ask him if I could at least pay the shipping on these. Oh man. I smell a sarge project just around the corner. These I believe, were the hardest parts to find other than the cabinet itself. The Marquee, the Control Panel, PCB and sound board. I'm sure there's probably a power board and the transformer setup. I'll have to look at the docs for an upright Sarge just to see what all parts I still need. But these really set me in the right direction.
Thanks man. I can't wait to get started on this. Thanks for everything.
