I took a trip down to a local distributor that was trying to clean shop a little and scored the following:
While there, I bumped into Alexcc picking up his goodies:
The Moon Patrol is physically in OK shape. The monitor seems to work, but the boards were shot. The power supply connector was burned through on the green wire. One of the transistor connector had burned up also and somebody had soldered it directly onto the pin. So I replaced the power boards and fixed the transformer connector and powered it up....only to find the game boards are shot too. *Sigh*
The monitor in the TimePilot looks like it may work, I haven't tried to plug it into anything yet, but it has neck glow. The TP board is fried as well, so this looks like a candidate for multicading. On the way home the bezel blew out and is gone, along with most of the cardboard shroud. I thought the control panel was locked down, but surprise, it was just jammed and somewhere on the road, the bezel bailed out. If anybody has a TimePilot and can PM me the measurements, I would appreciate it. It was just a hunk of amber plexi, but it would have saved tying to find the measurements at least
.
I hope Alex has better luck with his games.

PS: That is not Alex in the picture.
