Star Wars - Should I do It?
FrizzleFried:
I'm on my way! W00t! I've decided that rather than gut the upright to get the cockpit going I am going to restore the cockpit separate from the upright then sell the upright. Well, I managed to source working amplifone PCBs yesterday. They cost me a fortune ($325.00 shipped), but they are guaranteed working and from a reputable source. The 25" amp compatible tube I have in the cabinet is in decent shape but with about 1/8" burn in the middle... Not terrible, but still sucks a bit...I think I will live.
I also have sourced a working set of SW PCB's but the guy wants $300 shipped for them. A bit steep. I am trying to locate working boards for closer to $200 or so. I also found someone who wants the upright when I am ready to sell.
When all is said and done I should have a working cockpit instead of the upright for about zero dollars....I may even make a couple bucks on the deal in the long run.
ChadTower:
Awesome. I'm hugely jealous. :cheers:

Congrats Frizzle!
RayB:
It needs a set of wheels and headlights.
FrizzleFried:
It has wheels... no headlights though.
:)
This has been a great week for me. I managed to find working Amp PCBs....a working set of SW PCBs.... and a working 19" medium resolution monitor CHEAP (for an A.P.B. I have sitting here)...
