Looking to see if someone here bought a pristine Whirlwind from Koz in the last several years. Obviously, it happened a while ago, but I'm just wondering if whoever bought it might PM me.

Thank you.

Sounds like you are fishing for a lead on a potentially stolen machine? I wouldn't say boo to your question asked as you have.

How about come clean with the REAL reason behind your question and you might actually get the answer if you have a genuine reason for knowing?

If trying to track down a stolen machine, just say so, otherwise - why?

No, nothing so nefarious as that. Koz had a specific Whirlwind that I was very much interested in (and I'll keep those reasons to myself, thank you very much), and I had inquired about buying from him several times. After he died, his wife indicated to me that he'd sold it, and I was just trying to track it down again.

Nothing stolen. No bad faith. Just a (probably pointless/fruitless) search on my part.

Since we’re guessing, maybe there’s a kilo of cocaine hidden in the coin box. Or a treasure map. But my money’s on the coke.

Any chance you know the serial number? http://www.ipsnd.net/View.aspx?id=2765

Nope. Wish I did, I suppose, but it probably wouldn't be of any help, anyway.

I never actually got to physically lay eyes on the machine, myself. Yeah. I know how it sounds.

I hope you can track it down. Of course, there is always HEP to help with a pristine example as well.

Should try posting in the Michigan for sale. might have a better chance

KOZ had some nice games. I have his Shadow and if the Whirlwind is anything like it I could see why you want to track it down.

I believe that I have already done that.
