Possibly a Vanguard Resurrection
Mike A:
Awhile back I bought a working Krazy Bowl for 50 bucks at a pawn shop.
It was in a Centuri cab and I want a Time Pilot so that would put me part way there since I happen to have a working Time Pilot PCB.
I decided to take the cab apart and template it so I could build another.
While taking it apart I found a tiny clue as to what this cab was born as. A small piece of the original artwork under one of the bolts.
It looks like it was a Vanguard according to my brief detective work.
So now I am planning on templating this cab, and then restoring it to its former glory as a Vanguard cab.

$50 for a working game? I’d set it out on the back porch and play it whenever I went out there to take a piss.
Mike A:
It is one of those things that I hear about but never happens to me. I have a friend who lives in Watertown, WI. He found it for me. The pawn shop owner needed the space. My buddy offered to take it off his hands for free. They settled on 50 bucks. The only real issue is the screen rolls to the left after about an hour. If I jiggle one of the adjustment pots it stops. I will fix that while I have it out of the cab.

I like Vanguard.... I LOVE time pilot. If it were me I would go Time Pilot 100%
