Do I dare mention the star wars cockpit I have seen in an arcade (that would
prefer to remain nameless) that was running a raster racing game?? The whole
cockpit was pretty good, apart from the panel had been butchered for a
steering wheel. And obviously the monitor was far from original equipment!

Well, a true collector will go to extraordinary lengths to buy/fix/restore
and play his cabs.
(like me)
I'm so pleased with all the work on my Robotron that I wouldn't swap it for
a nicer (and more complete) one now 'cos I like it!

Yes it is and don't skip it ... let someone from the group take it away for
free.
I have both Robotron and Defender Boardsets coming from the US.
Anyone interested? (I haven't forgotten you Ade)
