Title: Picked up 2 cabs last night - Pics
Post by: clanggedin on February 18, 2005, 12:31:20 pm
I picked up 2 cabs last night from a guy who sold me a Ridge Racer 2 a couple of weeks ago. I got a Surf Planet that needs a cap kit and a dual vs.golf cocktail or whatever you call it cab. The vs. golf has the chip so one side is male golers and the other side is female golfers. It's missing the coin doors, but runs beautifully. Mr borther is buying the Surf Planet from me because it has a metal cp that looks like it was for a Gauntlet type game.

They guy has a Tetris that was in one of those cabs where the monitor is suspended above the body. I didn't pick that one up because I had no room in my pick up.

Here's some pics:

Here's the Ridge Racer 2 with a new coat of black enamel.

It isn't really a 4 player game. It's 2  2-player games in 1 cab. I will try and post pics of the insides in a few days. It's being stored at my brother apartment until I can find a way to break the news to my wife without her ripping my nads off.

It has a monitor on each side of the tent.

Doesn't VS Tennis support 2 vs 2?

(...checking KLOV...)

Why yes, it does!

I may have to change the cab to a VS Tennis cab if that's the case :)

That cocktail reminds me of R2D2 for some reason.

Somehow I don't think a VS machine could make repairs to an Xwing during the middle of a struggle for intergalactic supremacy.... ;)
