Malenko:

I wouldnt MAME it, paperboy is like PacMan to me, one of the first arcade games I ever played... that and 720

Kaytrim:

The unique cabs are worth saving and this is one of them. I don't know where you are but if you are in a larger city there might be one of the BYOAC members nearby that might help you out in restoring it or trade a mameable cab to you for the paperboy.

If he is in NJ it would take about 10 minutes of phone calls to find an empty Dynamo shell.  They're more common than needles on a beach.

My buddy picked it up for me at 120$. It is a classic ,but I'm tired of playing Mame on a keyboard. I'm 20 minutes north of Atlantic City, NJ. I'd gladly do a fair trade with someone.  Exit 48 GSP.. I'm about 450$ into this thing. It has been a bunch of fun doing research and telling people about it. I started doing the control panel at the beach where I lifeguard at and everyone asked what I was building. Control panel? For what?

ArtMAME:

Did I not read somewhere that there was an auction in NJ this weekend???  Go to that if you are close and you may find something.

The last auction I went to (Atlanta, GA) had about 100 MAMEable cabs!!! Most of them went for $1, $5, $10, etc.
