Get the welding gear out

The cab behind had a P-47 Freedom Fighter marquee (inside out though)

Yeah; if only my psychic powers were working, I'd have known I'd be picking up a P-47 board at the second location.
Grrrr!

Where was it as Ive just bought that cab.

Where was it as Ive just bought that cab.

It's in my front room

Pretty busy today so I've only had chance to check it with my Vogatek Supergun.

Seems to have a couple of graphics issues (player 1 plane not displayed correctly - a few vertical lines, above the fuselage, which shouldn't be there - and 'Jaleco' looks a bit wrong on boot-up).

It looked OK (was one of the boards we tested at the end of the afternoon) so it could be issues with either the Supergun, or the fact I'm watching the RGB output on an LCD TV (I've seen the outputs from some boards to have "issues" - particularly colour and sync issues - while others seem perfectly OK).

I'll check it properly (in a cab) later this week (probably won't be until the weekend, as I'm pretty busy at work this week) and give a proper report, if you're interested in a trade or swap of some kind.

[BristolMartin]

PART 1 BARN

The first part of this adventure was to meet in the middle of nowhere on a farm. Full of cabs. Win.

Rav and I got there before the Luton vans of Martin Deliveryman, forcefulfil and adebov. However what frightened all of us the most was adrian_pursar was the first ukvaccer on site! We actually phoned him about 9:30am telling him to get out of bed as we were driving past Newport, Wales only for him to answer FIRST TIME (!!!) and say he was driving past Swansea!!!

may I ask what area was the raid in?, I could have helped out if I knew you where in my area as I live in swansea, no money for cabs though.

That's a nice gesture Martin. If The Deliveryman is going back then now is the time to get some of the others. I got a price from him for Turbo Outrun @ £200. The Mickey Mouse puppet thing is £795.

 

[BristolMartin]

Yes same. My TOUtrun is mint so ill not take that one. But im tempted by the Mickey.

 

[IDCHAPPY]

That mickey mouse puppet thing is cool

 

[Milky]

Mickey mouse thing scares the balls off me, was that someone else who wanted that?

Thanks Martin - If you guys are both okay with that then, can i take the midi (depending on cost) and the turbo outrun (guessing that's a midi too?)

[BristolMartin]

Yes suggest you take both. Very worth while prices.

 

[Purity]

I've seen similar coin-operated puppet machines like this. They were made by Mayfield Electronics Ltd around 1971, and seem to fetch more than what it is being sold for.

I reckon that could be a good buy for someone. A very unique item

Milky I will txt the guy now for £200 each ok? But you need to sort payment and pickup out with Martin the Deliveryman.

 

[Alpha1]

Text sent

Their really nice HOTD is £300 also. I didn't take pix of that though.

 

[BristolMartin]

Hotd is mine.

 

[stevearcade]

Well done guys. Looking forward to some good resto threads

.

 

[Alpha1]

Milky they are yours for £400 the pair. Arrange it with The Deliveryman! He will have to pay for them too.

Update. He has text back to say he will transport them from the farm to the main warehouse so there's one pickup point.
