For sale in Hopkins, Minnesota a Death Race. $800.00 local sale, no
shipping. Cabinet is very nice. Board problem, the people you try to run
down hang around the left side of the screen and are scared to come out. I
haven't done anything with this in a couple years and need to make room at
my storage facility. LTG

Some interest but no sale yet. How about $700.00 ? I have no way to crate or
ship, but if anyone wants to make arrangements with NAVL or similar ways to
get it picked up and delivered I'll work with them. LTG

offense intended

I won that one.

I think I'm going to have to ask for a little advice on how to bring it
back to life. I'm hoping the cap on the power supply is the only thing
wrong with it. Other than that and the missing back panel it looks
intact. I've seen these before with screwed up or replacement
shifters, for instance. This doesn't look that bad.

It's a gamble to pick this up, but look at what the OTHER Death Race
went for:

Even though they supposedly made 10,000 of these, I've never seen them
before on Ebay, so it was especially strange to see two at the same
time. Maybe I just haven't been looking well enough. I can only
imagine I got the deal I got only because the restored machine drew
away all the bidders. I was really surprised I wasn't outbidded or
that there wasn't a higher reserve on it to begin with.

difference than the other one. good score. good luck on the resto.

$300 was a steal, even in that condition. Congrats. Sometimes the arcade
gods are behind us.

I had considered on bidding on it but after my recent purchase, I know
my wife would have divorced me and taken half of the vids just to piss
me off. Probably would have pushed them off a cliff.

Let us know if you get it working.

Makes me happy I'm divorced. I lost all my vids in my divorce but I
won custody of my child so I have full control over how I manage my
money.
