Title: A big Thank You!
Post by: Xam on March 02, 2006, 07:29:00 pm

Just wanted to give a big huge public thank you to CW! I went to his house to pic up a cab and WOW! After a short tour of his arcade paradise he helped my friend and I get the cab to the truck. I have to say...he's one of the nicest people I have met. There truly are some great people on these boards and I'm glad I had the opportunity to meet CW in person.

Again...thanks cw...my kids already love the cab!

I think it was a Super Cobra that had been converted to mania challenge. It needs some love but was given to me with some pretty nice parts left in it.
Its got an operation coin door, 2 nice leaf joys (not sure of the brand) and some good leaf buttons. The marquee and monitor bezel are in very good shape. I know with a little elbow grease and love it will be a nice machine for me. I will post pics of the finished product...but it will be a while...I have plans for another cab before really attacking this one.

Dug into the cab a little bit today. I found the joysticks to be the "coveted" Wico ball tops with leaf springs. They seem to be in good shape...need a little cleaning...but hey...it was free!
