My Lucky ,then not so Lucky Deal On "EBAY" ^.< (Final_Fight)
« on: April 17, 2005, 02:29:19 am »
I was looking through ebay one week under one of my favorite searches and I found a great buy, A Final Fight One Cabinet which looks fairly clean, and works 100%

for the low,low price of $150! I guess the odds are with you when your bidding on Local pick ups in certain states... ^.<

PS: I am also Putting my MGCD up for auction now on ebay, along with the possibility of my Suicide Free boards (EX. MVSC

Nice looking cab. I got one of those in my garage that I got along with some empties, tho mine is not as clean. It a fun game, the neighborhood kids love it! I always thought of putting it back in service.....

Just post a full side pic and somebody around here can tell you.  Looks like a clean cab.  Nice catch.

Okay I brought it home and as some of you already know the Screen is stuck on Red, and some of the other Dials/Knobs are broken... I also noticed that the paint underneath is gray and blue... any Idea what it was before the conversion?

Just to add, that this was working 100% when it was sitting at the rink where I had picked it up from, If you have any Suggestions on how to fix the monitor Please Send me a Tell... ^.<

I checked on Klov, and moon patrol has blue and gray side art but i pealed a little bit of paint further off to find a combination of blue,gray and red?! but the base color of the cabinet is gray....

DIrect quote from Ken Layton:

"You have a "heater to cathode" short inside the neck of the picture tube. Sometimes connecting it to a picture tube rejuvenator (a piece of test equipment sometimes called a 'restorer-analyzer') can blast the short out and fix it. Randy Fromm's website has a tech section detailing a homemade fix for this problem. "

I have this same problem on my P.O.W. I haven't had a chance to try it out on my cab yet.

Try soldering the knobs back on, you may have to purchase replacement knobs (pots). If that doesn't fix your problem, then you may have what I posted.

im not so sure, the picture of the paint was pretty far down the cabinet and its art was alot more higher than that... and the KLOV.com's cabinet has a cut out Control panel-like style... and this one just goes down from the monitor to the floor with no curves on the CP?
dunno, the colors are right.. but i dunno...

unfortunately thats all i could dig up from KLOV, >.<

I scratched away at a side and it was indeed gray, so im left to think that Karman was right it was a robotron 2084...

That Robotron picture you just posted is not in a normal Robotron cabinet, the picture Klov has is of a rare factory conversion of another cabinet.

A REAL Robotron cabinet is here.
