Alright the $150.00 deal I found on Craigslist went through today,I found the ad late yesterday and the seller gave me 1st shot at the little project machine,he said he had about 15 to 18 emails and I got through to him 1st and everything worked out-(Cash in hand,get to his house before
10 AM today)
It has bad board damage-(Corroded Battery),the General Illumination works,everything appears to be intact-I will be going over it and removing the main board after this post.I am thrilled to have a little manageable project for $150.00,I'm very detail oriented and this little guy will be working at some point,I'm sure I'll put more into it than street value,but that's how I roll.It's mine now and it will get the executive treatment.
I have never actually seen one or paid much attention to these cute little guys before the last week or so,as they have made it to the front page of this forum with that other thread

I blame Mr68 for contributing to this purchase-more like I Thank him for his write up regarding these often forgotten little brothers to our beloved arcade style machines.
