Wanted: Cabs In NW OHIO
« on: March 27, 2003, 08:14:16 am »
I'm looking to build my own MAME box :D, and am wondering if anyone knows where I can find a gutted vertical cabinet in NorthWest Ohio?  Artwork isn't really important to me, just something in decent shape that I can work with.

Thanks for any info.

Sat there is a US amusement auction in columbus - not terribly close but it's an option.  Someone there might hook you up with a gutted cab, or you'd at least get a connection to someone.

I was planning to head down to the auction this Sat.  My cousin is looking for a pinball machine.

Ate-Bit you could try calling Dr. Scotts in Maumee.  He only does pinball, but I was in there one time talking for a while and he knows of some places in the area that deal in arcade machines.

I wish I knew who stocked the arcades at Cedar Point.  They'e got a ton of classics in there.  Whoever it is probably has something you'd be interested in.

Your best bets are probably all the mini-amusement parks (go kart places, arcades, etc) around cedar point.  I don't know much about NW Ohio, but I've never noticed much over there driving thru it.
Game programmers do not play games for a living.  Would you say a mechanic drives cars for a living?

I have a few cabs.  Let me know where you are..zip code...and if we are close I might be able to hook you up.
