WTB - Atari Steeplechase buttons or populated control panel

I know this is probably a long shot, but you never know what people have sitting in their garage or on a shelf.
Need the buttons to complete an Atari Steeplechase.
Would even buy a complete populated control panel if someone has one.
Please let me know what you have.
Really trying to keep this game as original as possible before trying alternative solution for buttons.
Thanks
Kent

That's dedication!
 
Kent, you may want to post pictures of the parts or complete buttons that you are looking for since these may have been used in other games

are they like the ones in canyon bomber? i have seen those pop up for sale

just a thought, kenny

Good point.
Heres a couple pictures of what the buttons look like as well as one of a populated control panel. These may be used in a few other early Atari games as Kenny mentioned.
I believe they are the same housing as the start buttons on Stunt Cycle (different insert button though), maybe other games as well?
As I mentioned, I would really like to go all original with this, although I may find some modern aftermarket buttons to use as a temporary solution as long as I dont have to drill the CP.

Thanks in advance
Kent

I would also be interested in the 8 Track that was sold as an option for this game.
If anyone has one of these sitting around, let me know.
I know with some of the EM games that had 8 track options some have been converted to digital files. If anyone has access to that, I would be interested as well.
Not sure what the added sound effects are, but seems like it would be really cool (announcer maybe)?
Thanks again
Kent
 
holy shee-ite, watched a couple youtubes of this tittle and all those buttons are lit, and sadly none of the youtubes seemed to have the 8track audio option (which sounds like it would be cool as heck)
the stunt cycle buttons do appear to be the same and iirc, they are also lit or sometimes they are lit
hope you are able to find some of them

Yeah, each button is lit with a different colored gel insert which matches the gel color of each corresponding horse on the monitor.
Im currently exploring the possibility of having the plastic parts for them 3D printed.
Not sure if we can do this or not, but will find out.
