This thread has everything, cabs being sold, then not sold. Van rental, road trips, puking on the side of the road! (I assume that's what it was)

It will be nice to see those Noirs come back life, good work all. Hope you feel better soon @Retroman839
I'm currently in discussions with a rather large film studio about selling the rights to this epic yarn. The Rock is interested in Retroman's role.

How’d you get on? Seemed like a real mission!

Well yeah bit of a nightmare, poor retroman didn't get there till quite late and feeling crap into it doesn't help, screwed over with the van hire.
I looked at this on how to get control panel off https://www.arcade-projects.com/threads/namco-noir-advice.13039/
T20 Security hey, cool I got a few tools together, some rechargeable lamps as it was probably be in dark, various other tools, my socket set and set of all sizes security torx bits for impact driver so all covered, all in the tool box or I thought they were
I said meet at the McDonalds but that is one weird place, look on google maps i'm not sure what it was before but it had parking charges in 2019 as thats google pics around there, the stratford road is 2021 and says it just opend, online says 2 hours free parking yet not one sign anywhere at the place saying 2hours or any time limit but some bullshit signs around with qr codes to scan to pay, I couldn't work out if you need to pay but other sign saying book in advance place is a joke so probably get a fine appear through door as i was there 10 mins just trying to make sense of it and then we said so it when he arrived and parked up the road, Technology with all these fecking cameras I hate it, don't need the hassle with it all which is why i like staying home
So when he arrives I find i've only left the bloody bit set on the kitchen worktop :rolleyes: and was it a T20 er no it was probably more a T30 you need for the side CP plastic trim so we had to work out how to get the monitor support off the base, then the coin mech/card system pod off with bolts underneath inside you couldn't see well so good job I had the lamps and with those removed the base just went in upright thankfully

I was more concerned with what time he'd get home and not feeling well really don't help, come out the road just few hundred yards from the M40 and what a fecking surprise they bastards had the M40 south slip road shut so he had to take another piss taking diversion home, you just can't get anywhere at night without road closures it's a bloody nightmare, I thought I bet i'll get screwed over somewhere as well on way there or way back and only going 35 mile, what a surprise get on the M69 and not long before saying down to 1 lane meaning without telling you its bloody shut and have to get off and drive across all the shit back roads
Got back myself just before 1:30am so god knows what time retroman was back

I wanna visit this Blue Noir Club now @Chihiro was talking about, if I was opening something I'd call it that or Noir Club Blue :LOL:

Nice Red Noir waiting for you @channel27 one with the red surrounds and black grill which look nice I think

Mine will probably be in the car for a week or two, need to sort out where to put it, I've got one place I could if I move all the crap and the still ongoing project conversion grabber cab that's still there not finished, which would be good as I could get it all cleaned and rebuild and setup to play, until I start storing crap on it like everything else :ROFLMAO:

Need someone to help me lift it and carry through all the crap to get it there though, nice to have some excitement on picking up another cab again, been a while since I bought anything for myself
