tron $**400!!** needs a little work

Yep putting this out there to see if i get anybody interested.

It is this tron so you know whats been done:
http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=109769&highlight=tron


Its had the cab rebuilt, amateur paintjob, phoenix arcade inner art, phoenix arcade (b grade) sideart, phoenix arcade repro marquee. bobrob mcr cables, Cleaned up cpo. original power supply was rebuilt but they failed, left in cabinet. Has had an arcadeshop switcher and adapter installed. No backdoor. original shroud with bubbly but nice original decals, faded frt lower plexi.


the game has been problematic since the beginning. First sound issues then missing caracters. Every time i would pull and reseat the mcr cables , play with some connectors and it would work again. every time it would work for a few weeks or a month and start acting up again.

The wiring in this cab is not the best. Perhaps thats the issue. Perhaps its the bobrob mcr cables are bad, i dont know and to be honest im just sick of messing with this.


$500 firm *******NOT SO FIRM!! $400 FIRM NOW or trades?? im a sucker for drivers.. and cars... and tvs.. and whatever the heck else. Add up what i paid what ive put in it parts wise and my labor, im wayy upside down bu to be honest i dont care. Was a labor of love, and in return it hates me lol

THis is in my basement arcade but i do have a power stair dolly so moving this upstairs wont be too bad.

located in machesney park illinois, 61115 and sorry at this time i really dont want to deal with shipping.


My imfamous red 99 cadillac finally puked a connecting rod out of the block, i really could use some money to title my new car.

Sorry to hear about the troubles. Bump for a sad story, a good price, and a nice TRON>
 
Man this is quite a deal. I had paid $400 for my trashed cab where I had to repair the monitor/boards and put in the switcher and rebuild all the wiring/connectors and although the game runs like a beast, the cab still looks like crap.

Little rough for me right now would love to own this and your within my range. If I could only sell my Gorf or Afterburner I Would take her of your hands.

If i can find my frickin good camera, i will get some current pics posted..

wow. This must be a gauge of how rough the economy is, or nobody likes my handywork...

Ready for this? $400.. Yep you read right. $400 or it sits dead forever.
 
Couple of months ago I would have been all over this... Oh, and I don't think it's your handywork, I think you did a great job especially considering what you had to work with.
Free bump for a great price.
 
apparently not great enough... got my new car but subframe is freaking bent lol.. the tires squeal everywhere i drive haha.. heres to hoping the sub from my other car fits on this one. I could really use a couple hundrd to get this thing road worthy... but nobody wants a tron i guess...
 
Great price, looks pretty decent, and you are close...I just don't like TRON myself. One day when space is unlimited and so is money I will get one just to have one, but today isn't that day sadly.

Goodluck with the sale though can't believe this is still around.
