Personally, I don't think C$100 is all that bad if the cab is in good shape ... there are those who will say it is too much, but I don't think you would be getting ripped off so long as the cabinet is solid.

Yeah, that's the place...the artwork isn't too bad on KI, but the other has been painted over...you can still see the artwork through the paint though...

Heard about it, but haven't made my way up there yet ...
In any event C$100 is a good price, and even better if the art is OK (and you like it) and the cab is solid.
Or you could take you chance at auction, but that can be a crapshoot, particularly with The Kid bidding everything up (although he hasn't sold much recently, so maybe he's going to take a break ... I can only hope).
Cheers.

Yeah, he's outbid me a few times ... I'm still watching for those machines on eBay ... I would LOVE to get it for less than he paid.
Those cabinets should be great -- it really is lovely how the CP pops off, to you can build you own, if you wish.
Congrats ... look forward to the pictures.
Cheers.

Thanks...my wood working skills aren't the best, but I think I have an idea of how to start...CLEAN THEM...it's gotta be the first thing...with my luck there'll be dead animals in them, or worse, live animals or bugs...
I'm going to try and add castors and keyboard tray...the CP will be the most difficult, as I'm not really that good with wood...
So far I've collected:
IPAC4
OPTIPAC
2 x T-Stik
2 x T-Stik Plus
Hundreds of buttons
TB or 2
Wiring kit
A bunch of 21" monitors, though my plan is to use a 27" TV
MiniPAC
5 x HAPP Supers
Wico balltop
A bunch of black t-molding
I want to pickup a spinner and maybe a flight stick...

I got the cabinets today...they're in pretty good shape...I'll clean up the garage, so I can move them to get some pics...I found out it's not an NFL Blits, but a converted "Hit The Ice"...I really like the shape of this cab...I think I'll start on it first...the KI I think I'm going to try and restore the cabinet...the artwork is in good shape...I dunno what game was in it, but the CP has a hole for a TB...
[EDIT] Added pic of cab.,,I like the shape of this one...
