Does anyone know if Knievel makes cabs for sale?
« on: July 16, 2008, 05:14:39 pm »
I'm sure this has come up, and judging by the fact that there is no contact info on his incredible site, I'm guessing the answer is no.

However, I have to ask, naturally...

If he did it'd probably be ugly. I couldn't see how he could keep up with the demand. He does some incredible stuff  8)

I doubt that very much. It wouldn't be hard to build cabs to a high standard if you have the right systems in place.

I'm pretty sure he built a CP for a forum user (can not find the thread) and he built The Woody for someone. So I'd imagine if the money was right he would make a cab for someone.

There is only one way to know for sure ... PM him and ask.

I definitely would have done that if I saw a way to contact him.

He doesn't have an email listed, and I don't see a way to pm anyone. (If there is, can someone point me in the right direction?)

Thanks,
Steve

Find his profile and then at the bottom there is a hyper linik that says 'Send this member a personal message'

Or just click this:

Edit: Great minds think alike (at the same time!) Cheffo  :laugh:

Thanks guys!

I sent him a pm - not sure if he'll get it or respond, but figured that I'd have to try.

Thanks again,
Steve

I know that he spends some time at the lake during the summer, so he may not respond right away, but he`ll reply.

He has built several CPs for forum users in the past. I don’t know how much he is into the hobby lately though; he hasn't been active for over two months.

Yeah, I don't have the tools, skills or space to make a cab (or CP), so I'm hoping to procure his services...

I wonder if he would do an entire cabinet, ready to go (everything included).

He has sold a few converted MAME cabs. I don't think he goes out of his way to do it as a business though.
