Aww man, I want to have a Defender so bad, I would love to restore one.  It's such a shame that folks throw these away when there are a lot of people who would love to have it.    

BTW I just saw all the great pics of your restoration.  Inspiring stuff!

[RetroJames]

Thanks I appreciate that.  I sure wish that Defender was close to me though, I am really itching to do a full-on restoration of one of those.  That was my game back in the day.  I hope someone here can go grab it.

I would love to have it but detroit is 4 hrs away and I only go once a month (now if someone were to pick it up for me and hold it in the detroit area that would be perfect--then again I might as well wish for gold bricks to fall from the sky )

Crap-I just drove past that place Sunday afternoon.  I had my trailer also (with a Mach 3 and Berzerk).  I absolutely would have grabbed that cabinet.

Timing is everything.

Consider it saved

Nice looking cabinet.  Wood looked nice and the side and front art looked
to be in great shape.  Also had a monitor tube and chassis that was tagged
as bad so I'll have to see if I can get that in working shape.  Too dark to
take get a real good look at it or take any pictures (I picked it up about
9pm, really glad it was still there) so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to
get a chance to really look it over.  Eventually I'd like to turn this into
a multi-Williams.  Thanks for the info though
