FS: ready-to-go JAMMA cabinet of your choice in N TX (now with LOTS of pics!)

*EDIT 06-16-2005* I just added ALOT of pictures so I don't know how long it'll take to load.

I have alot of machines in my garage. The vast majority are converted classics. Only 2 or 3 have bum monitors. So here's my question...

Would there be anyone in here (within driving distance of DFW) interested in one of these machines if it were cleaned up and had a good monitor put in it? It would be a ready-to-go machine without an actual board in it. This would allow the end-user to either put in their own board or MAME it. For a little more I could put a game in it, but my selection on hand is limited.

Of course, if you wanted to fully restore it you could go that route, too. However, most of these things have been covered up with formica. I wouldn't count on the sideart being salvageable. The cabinets are all 100% sturdy, though.

I don't want to start prepping these machines for such a venture if there's nobody interested. This is pretty much just to test the waters.
Kev-in DFW:
Sure, I would be interested in stopping by and taking a couple off of your hands!  WHAT, you don't just need them removed from the property.  I'll wait until your wife puts a little more pressure on you and then we can talk again!  j/k  ;D

I would be interested depending upon what you got and what you want.  I have a couple of guys at work that might be interested in a cab as well.  I am looking for a multi-Williams (who isn't) but am currently finishing up a 2 player Dynamo Cab, Street Fighter II style.

I think we would all be interested in MAMEing more than restoring, so these might fit the bill.

PM me and I will give you my cell, would enjoy hearing from you.

NY_in_TX can vouch for me, I met him when he picked up his Tron cab.

Talk to you soon...

Kev~
AlanS17:
I paid money for 'em. I can't just start giving 'em away.  :)

I'd like to see pictures of that Dynamo when you're done.

If you're looking to build a Multi-Williams, though, you're in luck. We've got Defender and Joust cabs.

These things are probably better for MAME, anyways. They're already converted and I'd consider the sideart a total loss unless you have some creative method of diggin through the formica and paint to get to it. It's all under there somewhere (though I can't speak for its condition).

... and I'm not married so no pressure there.  ;)

I'll PM you.
NY_in_TX:
Yeah, I'll vouch for him, unless you got something I want  ;D   (man am I glad I got there before Kev got my tron and SW yoke!)

Kev is "eager".  Kinda reminds me of this young whippersnapper who came up from Houston and bought up every cab around DFW.  ;)

Alan, how much you lookin for one of the williams cabs?

ny

ps I am getting some pms from some new guys to have another DFW get together.  I would be good as there are A LOT of new guys lately. which is great.
