Title: Spy Hunter... RetroJames?!?
Post by: MYX on March 02, 2006, 02:45:22 pm

Crap. Too slow. There was a Spy Hunter on Freecycle this morning. That sucker went FAST. The person said that there were a couple of issues, but that the cab was in great shape. Heck I would have loved to work on those issues. A free Spy Hunter is a free Spy Hunter.

Who needs 2. Tell him that I need a spy hunter too. Actually my wife wants it too. RJ, ask him if he'll part with it? Even at a small price.

You cherry-pick the best minty parts, put them all on one, then re-sell the other.

I would but sadly I was not the one who got it. I am sure the -- auto censored-- collector will though...

Dat was funny. I will consider your demand to consult you on my freecycle findings.  ;)

I did get a 1980 Williams Black knight off freecycle about a year and a half ago. It was grungy and non working, but I fixed both of those issues. The only issue left is that the back glass is off a Stellar Wars Pin and a couple of lighting transistors that need replacing.

You pretty much forfeit any right to pout with that one ...

Cheers.
