WTB: Asteroids Deluxe and/or Tempest Cabaret (Chicago area)

Looking for an AD or Tempest Cabaret (maybe both at some point). Unfortunately, I don't have a ton of space so I'm kinda limited to the cabaret or cocktail format. I might be able to pull off a full sized Tempest, but Asteroids would be really hard to move around down here in my basement.

Anyone have something for sale semi-local? I've got an SUV that should be big enough to do a pickup and I don't mind driving a few hours for a nice machine. Appearance doesn't have to be 100%, but functionality should be. I know maintenance for vectors is something I'll have to learn, but I'd like to start with a working example.
 
No vectors in my Easter basket. Maybe a bump? I could probably do a trade for silver coins too if someone found that interesting. I'd even be interested in a functional Asteroids (non-deluxe) cabaret or cocktail if the price was right. I like AD better, but my understanding is that the boards are similar enough that it's not a huge deal to adapt the wiring harness from one to another.
 
I have a Asteroids CT I would sell for $400, it was fully working when Traded for it at mgc last year 2011 show. It worked the entire show and people were playing it, but I brought it home and it didnt work when I plugged it in. Has been sitting in the corner since then. I never have had a reason to fix it yet low on the list as I have a working UR.

Thanks, but I was hoping for something in working condition. Don't really care about the appearance (within reason), but this will be my first game and I'd like to be able to play it a few times before I have to repair it :)

I am travelling downstate into Kentucky this weekend, so if anyone sees this and has anything available along I57 or I24, let me know!
 
Just sent you a PM. I have an asteroids deluxe cocktail FS, and I live in Kentucky. Just let me know if you are interested and I can send you pics.
 
Hope it's not a faux pas to bump my old thread, but the cabaret gods have not been smiling on me. Still looking for both a Tempest and an AD - I'd also be interested in a regular old asteroids cabaret too if the price is right. My understanding is that it wouldn't be all that hard to adapt an AD board set to an Asteroids machine.

Again, more concerned with a working boardset and monitor than necessarily a great looking cab.
