Title: WT: Olympia Caterpillar Parts
Post by: rotheblog on March 13, 2017, 01:41:54 AM

I picked up an Olympia Caterpillar cabinet just over two years ago from a gentleman on the east coast, and I'm finally making moves to do something with it.

The game needs - most everything.  I realize it would be a long shot to surface parts.  A marquee would be nice, a control panel would be my top priority or a panel that could work and be converted.  I don't expect I'll be able to fully restore it, even putting a Centipede in the cabinet would be a decent middle ground.

If anyone has parts that is willing to step forward / consider selling, please let me know.  Like I said, long shot, and I don't get to post here that often so most folks don't know me all that well.

Best,
-Jeff

Hi Jeff,
I've one to restore too. I'ts almost complete.
If you want I can scan marquee and CP.

Just an info. Its side arts have been drawn by Luigi Corteggi, AKA Cortez, a very famous aitalian Artist. He drawn a lot of comics...
just put "Corteggi tex kriminal" on google and then press "pictures"

If you are willing to do a scan, I would be interested to have that artwork.  I would definitely have the marquee printed, and possibly the overlay if I could have a panel fabricated.  Even detailed photos of the panel, what it looks like on top, and the underside - would be most helpful.
