    See image below. needs a good owl restore! Was previously booting to a screen with blocks on it, but i plugged it in this morning and nothing on screen. it was cold out this morning, so it still might be asleep. it has a pcb in it, old style, no idea what it is though.

    100 euro collected from athy. ill stick it up on adverts later too. would look nice restored, but needs a decent ammount of work.

    Thanks guys, cab is small enough, smallest one ive ever had. thats a 13inch monitor vertical in it, which will give you an indication of the width.

    Whats the woodwork like keith?
    Looks to me like if you cleaned up and painted the metal work it would look 100% better.
    I could make you a stencil for the front to replace that artwork?

    Is that an 4 way stick?Quick google shows its not the original CP anyway so I woulnt worry about it too much

    The wood seems ok, the metal is a bit rusty so would need to be cleaned up. The cpo on there is actually off a moonbase cocktail or something, but the original metal panel from space zap is still there underneath it. I need the money to be honest, but if you want the cab, ill swap for your lot of carts then sell them on adverts!
