Going to look at this tomorrow. Anyone know what it is worth? I have looked on the net and they appear to be on the rare side.

How much is the seller asking? Does it work, have keys, missing anything?

Here's one that ironically sold for more than my first two cars combined:

It is non working due to non use over the last 15 years. Its supposed to be complete, but not sure about the keys, its only non working. They remember using a dime to start it.

$6500... no, they are asking a lot less then my first car... I paid $1000 for that.

I tihnk the keys are to get into the  mechanics.  I assume the  "road" is acetone, If you can examine it, look for brittleness, cracking  etc.  Most of it looks like it just needs a good cleaning.

 Im an arcade collector and this got posted on a site im on the other day. I was trying to find the thread over there but couldnt. If this was a CL add send it to me and Ill do a search over there with that info. Trust me.....if one of those guys didnt buy it then there is something wrong with this machine and you might want to be very cautious.
