| Missle Command in trash pile |

WOW, that thing has seen alot of moisture. Look at the thickness of those swollen sides. But isn't it amazing how the electronics hold up to that same moisture exposure? Amazing. Is it only the sides that are kacked up or what? Cuz the front doesn't look too bad. If you don't mind plunking down some cash for new side-art, and refurbishing the trackball, you'll have a decent machine. Will take a couple hundred $ probably though. You'll have to cut new sides. |

that like finding cash in the trash. If you decide to sell parts, those 3 volcano buttons, you probably get $35 or more. If you can restore it, do it. I wish I found it :) |

I classic find like that... especially working relatively fine.... DESERVES to be restored. I know money is the issue in a lot of cases.... but slowly and surely!! Great way to learn how to restore these beasts, if you haven't learnt already that is. This one looks like she needs a bit of everything. Hence, a bit heavier on the pocket (if you look at it that way) but even heavier on the restoration knowledge gained!! Nice to see trash saves are still happening. My 2 cents. |
