| Got my two cabs today! |

I bought them off of Ebay this week. I drove down to the sellers warehouse this morning. It was about a 180 mile drive one way. I bought an Arkanoid in a scramble cab and an original Swimmer machine. They both work great. The guy gave me an eat s*** look when I told him that they were going to be converted to MAME cabs. He said that the Swimmer unit was rare. It looks like a dumb game to me but who knows. I'll post some pics later tonight when I get some help getting them off of the truck. The guy did have about 300 machine in a warehouse. He said his boss buys them by the TT load at auction and sells them on Ebay. I did not look around long because I was in a hurry to get back home. He did say that he had empty cabs that he would let go for a song if anyone is interested. He is about 40 miles north of Jacksonville, Fl. So, is Swimmer really that rare? Tracy |

It is uncommon and his eat s*** look was probably warranted. ;D http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=9988 It looks like a KLOV collector is looking for a Swimmer. Maybe you should try and get in touch with them? |

The swimmer cab needs work although the game works. I hate to know that it might be a rare game. That will leave me hunting another game. I guess I'll covert the other cab for now and deal with Swimmer later if at all. Thanks, Tracy |

Don't MAME classics... only JAMMA crap. Being the Scramble has been converted already, the arcade gods may let that one slide. But don't MAME the Swimmer... please. |

Yeah I've said this a lot recently and again now; one man's turd is another man's treasure. Always try and keep an original as is - there is always someone who wants it even if you don't. |
