Yeah they're piling up, had some good pickups recently but way behind on restoring!

Unfortunately with this one there was no monitor or board set so I'm thinking I'll fully restore it as a Tempest (cp, sideart etc.) but make it a multi-vector Mame using an LCD until I can source original parts at a sane price. It pains the soul a bit to put an LCD in any of my machines but on the upside I think I can make the monitor rotatable and play Tempest 4000 when it comes out.  8)

Seriously, you are on fire! You have some great games now. I'm so envious of your time you have to put into the hobby. As always, I'll be following your restores. You always do a helluva job!  :cheers:

And I actually like the tempest 4000 idea.  :cheers:
