Dear Alpha1. I have a terrible compulsive disorder to buy cabs that, to anyone else's eyes, are little more than scrap. I then spend my days (and nights) trawling the Internet to secure parts to bring these cabs back to life. It'd be cheaper, and easier, to just buy working examples. In a rare moment of clarity, I've realized the error of my ways. And I'll stop. Just need to finish off this Tempest. Then I'll stop. Because I can, if I want to .... But I need a power brick for it. Please help!

Have a box of them in parents loft. Not sure which is raster or vector. Will check in a week.

Dear Alpha1, what I need at the moment is this

- the marquee/overhead for Xevious (including the woodwork+glass+marquee itself)

(or just the marquee graphics as NOS -set to be applied on a new wooden structure+glass)

- Space Gun foot pedals + overhead plastic marquee + control panel with guns

- 4 cam locks for the Gauntlet cab (just thought of those, if you happen to have those lying around... )

- lipped T-mold for the Gauntlet CP

- working/nonworking Gauntlet I/II PCB so that I could have a Gauntlet II aswell. (don't want to mess around with the only Gauntlet PCB I have at the moment, working)

I have wooden structure (Crystal Castles), NOS Xevious marquee overlay and a G1/G2 PCB (not sure which one).

PM me buddy :)

- Konami Nemesis/Gradius PCB (working or not)

- Konami Life Force/Salamander PCB (working or not)

Dear Uncle Alpha1,

My name is Ben, for the past 5 years I have had a growing obsession with owning just 3 cabinets, no more cabs, just those three, Outrun (Upright), Paperboy and Outrunners (Now found). In my quest for such grails, I thought if I buy lots of parts I would eventually be able to fine. Ofcourse I have no way of testing all these. Just like others I have realised I could have probably just saved my money and bought a working cab rather than fill boxes up in my loft with parts. However the dream is getting closer, a Champ Sprint is on the way, but alas needs some parts to make her work again, then perhaps I can test the paperboy boards I have for when I get another System II cab for P/boy. So what do I want well......

* Coin Door for System II cab....although I think uncle Alpha may have granted this wish already)

* Bezel/Monitor Suround for System II cab

* Championship Sprint manual & schematics (I have some printed off the internet but some originals would be nice)

* Top shelf, speakers and light fitting from System II cab.

* 19" Medium Res Monitor for system II cab

* Outrunners (left handside art work)

* Outrun Upright Cabinet (can be empty or with monitor, must have side art)

* Something to test all my Outrun/Paperboy/Champ Sprint pcbs

* Paperboy Handle Bar sticker (the one that goes in the middle of handlebars) x 2

(just realised that is now actually 4 cabs, haha, but I could not bring myself to pull apart the Champ Sprint cab for Paperboy rebuilding, so opted to save it and keep it all original)

Is this the beginning of the end for your collection dude? Or just a "Christ, I've run out of space" moment?My loves are simple; any spare parts for Superbug or Boot Hill and I'd love a cocktail table (easier to sneak into the garage without the "wtf is that" comment from the wife) with something funky to play like galaxians or Mikie. oo! Also, Bank Panic. :)

I'll update tonight with specific parts for the first two

I wouldn't expect you to keep it anywhere else :)

Do we start a sleazy PM session now?

Eprom progger that does devices > 32 pins and bipolar proms. Got any decent test equipment? All subject to prices being sane
