Took a road trip today with a friend of mine today (how convenient that I have a hitch on my truck).  He bought himself a Jungle Hunt and "non-working" Space Invaders Deluxe.  The guy he was buying these from also had a Centipede with some board issues.  Well, the Centipede is now in my basement waiting to take the space that my Asteroids is taking.  I am dreading the fact that I now have to move the Asteroids out of my basement and in to the in-laws basement!  '<img'> I would rather move a few V63's, these Atari cabinets are  '<img'> heavy!

Thats great. the next thing you need is your own trailer. I got so tired of renting Uhauls. My little 4X8 trailer only cost $350 new. That is only a few trips in those Uhauls. Good luck with the games. if you need anything let me know. I know a guy that has a ton of parts.

I wish I had that "Jungle Hunt". Actually I wish it were the original version: "Jungle King". I loved that game back in the day and have always wanted one for my game room.

Now I am looking to buy: Dragon's Lair, Marble Madness, Spy Hunter, & Track & Field.

Great finds doc.

Yea, I was pricing trailers this past week.  I checked on the one that you are talking about, but then I thought if I get one, it should be large enough for our tractor and leaf picker-upper.  I then went in to sticker shock when I looked at the prices.  The trailer rental was only $25, which I don't think is that bad.
I think it might be a Jungle King board in his game.  
I might put some new side are on the Centipede before I put it in to use.  I found some for $70.

Yeah,
Actually, I am currently already in talks with Matt and am just about to seal the deal.
It is in amazing condition. My boys will love it! It is such a unique game.
But thanks for the heads up.

What a great find, Myself I never got into the video
game deal, The only one I really liked was Pack Man, there
 was one at the drive-in that worked at back in the early
 80's  and I would drop a few quarter in once in a while.

 Did they make a table top one ?
